DDR pads for students


PE class was always pretty boring, and as a I got the geek genes in my family I wasn’t exactly the best athlete. But they’re starting to change how things are done these days by introducing video games to encourage kids to get fit. W. Virginia schools are being outfitted with Dance Dance Revolution pads for PE classes. It’s only a matter of time before programs like this one are implemented in other states.
