Physical Fitness and Sports said, "Through its series of DVD's, athleticBaby has
created a wonderful opportunity for parents, caregivers, friends and family
members to help instill healthy habits and confidence in our very youngest

supports Gold Medal Play Groups, which encourage parents to shift the model of
the traditional playgroup from food-focused time with parents and children, to
more structured, physically active time with parents and children. Traditional
playgroups typically involve snacks, juice, and play. The Gold Medal play groups
involve group interaction with balls, safe sports visuals, and interactive play,
without food as a component. Healthful foods, recommended by the American
Academy of Pediatrics, are introduced before the playgroup, and parents and
children are then guided into a playgroup centered on physical activity and
fitness.
