    I agree the Wii is awesome but I get some pretty good walking in as well. I have twins and I take them out in the wagon and also find myself walking around constantly while waiting on them hand and foot all day!!

    Playing with the children burns a lot!

    Note on the Shred: I love it, but if you have bad knees, this is not the program for you. Just wanted you to know in case you were thinking about it. :-)

    P90X, Insanity or Turbo Jam! Any Beachbody product works great.

    idk what you have available around you for video stores but family video is awesome because you can checkout different workout dvds for free! I also have 4 kids under 6 and time is ALWAYS short! I workout during naptime and I just started tae bo bootcamp today and it is so much fun and hard....I did 45 min. and burned 547 cals. (according to my polar) hope this helps!!

    When I don't have time to go to the gym I go to Yogatoday.com they have a free weekly yoga video.

    I completely understand I am a stay at home mother to a 2 yr old and a 4 yr old. I also watch 3 other kids 4 to 5 days a week 10 to 12 hour days. I have found that I enjoy getting up and dancing with the kiddos to The Wiggles. lol It is usually a good half hour of jumping spinning and gets some good energy out of the kiddos too :) Not sure how old your kiddos are, The Wiggles may not apply in your home.
