Generation XL: Your Turn to Weigh In!
December 18 at 8:00pm
Throughout this past year, KCPT has been tackling the growing problem of childhood
obesity and sedentary lifestyles. We've weighed in on school vending machines, cafeteria
food and the demise of physical education in schools. Now it's your turn to weigh in.
Nick Haines will take calls in a live Generation XL special featuring in-studio guests
from the worlds of health, education and politics. |

We all know the physical benefits of exercise, but new research is showing that physical
activity can also be good for our brains. Making that mind-body connection is the goal
of The Active Brain, a new documentary that looks at the benefits for children engaging
in daily physical education in school and how through this class they are providing the
brain the necessary connections it needs to be prepared to learn. |
