The laziness factor increases as they grow older. Our 3.5 year old is completely knocked out for a good 3 hour nap after a .5 mile walk and play session.

the worst thing you can do, is allow for the laziness, that can wreck havoc on their fitness level
excersise and running is fabulous for young growing newfs, be happy he is so active, muscle holds bones in place and promote good strong joints.
fat does not

think of how it is for people, how hard it is on your back once you loose your muscle, weak stomach and back muscles prmotes pain and discomfort.
