Healthy Weight
Healthy Kids News reporter Wasif and Dr. Shirley Huang of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia discuss how important it is for children to maintain a healthy weight. A healthy weight varies for every child based on their age, height, and current weight. We all come in different shapes and sizes, but when we are overweight our bodies don't work as well. We are more likely to get sick and move slowly.
