Get out and play

Get the kids outside. That's the call from president bush today, as the white house tackles the issue of childhood obesity.

More than 10 million school age children are now considered overweight.

In an effort to combat the epidemic, the White House is teaming up Dreamworks Animation and the Advertising Council. The group plans to launch a public awareness campaign, featuring characters from the “Shrek” animated movies.

The characters will encourage kids to “be a player” and get up and play for an hour a day.
