Peewee soccer season is in full swing, so take a note from your little players and get active. Busy kids mean a little free time for mom. So if you're carpooling to practice, pack your water bottle and grab your sneaks — there's a workout to be had. My daughter practices on a field in the middle of a regulation track, making her practice a perfect time for me to go running. While I make laps around the field, I can see what's going on with the team without hovering — it feels a little like mommy jog meets reconnaissance mission.

If you don't like to run, then walk; even if there is no track around, walking the perimeter of the field is a great option. You'll meet other parents this way too. Add walking lunges to your laps to fit some strength training into your cardio time. Use benches or the bumper of your car for push-ups and triceps dips.

Basically, any sports practice or music lesson is like free child care. Look for fitness opportunities nearby these regularly scheduled weekly destinations. If you poke around, you just might find Pilates, yoga, dance studios, and climbing gyms within minutes of your little jock's practice or your budding violinist's lesson. Remember, a 20-minute workout is better than no workout at all.

Do you work out when your child is at sports practice? Tell us what you do in the comments section below.

Some of life's lessons need to be taught over and over again. For me the importance of packing a healthy lunch is one of them. Riding on the back-to-school momentum, I thought I would remind you all (like I was reminded by a dietitian at a mommy and kids Luna Bar nutrition event) to make yourself a lunch. Especially all you mothers out there.

Every mother is a working mother. Whether you spend your day behind a desk or behind a steering wheel, all moms need proper fuel to make it through the day. Oh how low blood sugar can make a mom snap! If you're driving around all day erranding in between drop-offs and pick-ups, soccer practice, and ballet lessons, you need lunch, too — even if it's not a scheduled hour. When packing lunches for your brood, make a lunch for yourself and keep your freshly packed midday meal with you for when the hunger pangs start. While your palate might be more sophisticated than you kids, you can always fill your lunch box with leftovers from the previous night's dinner. In a pinch, peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat bread with carrot sticks is better for you (and cheaper) than drive-through.

Did you pack yourself a lunch for today? Tell me, what's in your lunch box?
