I found every free or cheap activity in the KC area (we also had zoo passes) that also doubled as some form of physical activity.

THat’s true, but most people were working on your days off.

Both of my kids took it as a summer school class, self paced, online.

PE? Isn’t online PE kind of an oxymoron?

True, but most of what they did online was document and have to show the correct theory on certain activities.

My kid had online PE during the pandemic. He was supposed to do exercises on Zoom and the teacher would check each kid. It didn’t always go well.

Not PE related, but when my son was on Covid recovery we were home for snow.
He had to check his heartrate, do 20-30 minutes on the elliptical, check it again, and email the athletic trainer the data.

Not to discount this, but IMO, “obesity” is a term thrown around without much context.

And Hypertension is easily controlled… I know!!
