Not sure what to get that special someone?

This holiday season give them the gift of good health. An active gift can help make your loved one's holiday season brighter by helping them to get "in motion" and energized for all of the festivities.

If you are not sure what to get your friends or family, check out our 12 days of fitness gift ideas by clicking on present #1 in the image below.

There are plenty of inexpensive gift ideas that can be great motivators.  But before you buy any gifts ask yourself the following questions:

1. What does the person like to do?  As an example, if they like to watch TV, is there a gift you can buy that may encourage them to be active while watching TV?
2. What is the person's daily travel route? Consider activities that fall within a close range of this route. Check to see if there is a park, community centre, or facility with a 10-minute drive or walk.
3. Wil it be easy for the person to use the gift?  Will they need to purchase something extra to make it work?
4. Is there someone the person can buddy with to use the gift? Do they have family or friends that would like to try a new activity with them or would you consider being their "in motion" buddy?

If you have any questions about the active gift suggestions - please contact the Winnipeg in motion Coordinators at 940-3648 or email getactive@winnipeginmotion.ca.

Happy Holidays and all the best in the upcoming New Year!
