New website helps parents get kids active and reduce their screen time

Published

on

By

CALGARY, AB, Sept. 21, 2026 /CNW/ — Active for Life today launched ItsChildsPlay.ca, a free website that shows parents how to get their kids moving and off their screens.

The World Health Organization identifies physical activity as essential to health and well-being from the earliest years. Science finds that play builds executive function, social skills like negotiation and cooperation, motor development, and the ability to regulate stress and anxiety. Yet most Canadian children and youth fall well short:

80% do not get the recommended two hours of daily active play.63% do not get the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity.

Parents know these facts, but many remain uncertain about how to get their children moving, especially so when overwhelmed with the struggle to limit their children’s screen time.

ItsChildsPlay.ca provides practical solutions that show parents how easy it is to engage in fun activities with their children at home without costly equipment, struggle or stress.

ItsChildsPlay.ca was created by Active for Life, a web-based initiative that helps educators and parents build active play into children’s lives. The site is being promoted with a series of radio ads across Canada, with help from the Pro Bono Group.

Quotes

“For fifteen years, parents have been telling the Active for Life team that getting children to engage in active play is hard. We understand the challenge,” said Richard Monette, who leads Active for Life. “This is why we built ItsChildsPlay.ca: a resource for parents that’s easy to use, takes minutes a day and is good for their child’s body and mind.”

By

Limited-time savings of up to $240 are available on selected models, with an additional $100 off when purchasing two scooters.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ausom, a trusted brand in electric scooters, has launched its Fall Sale campaign across the United States, running from September 8 to 30, 2026, providing special pricing on selected models for consumers seeking a more flexible and affordable way to get around this fall.

Fall brings increased demand for short-distance travel among commuters and families, from daily commutes and local errands to weekend outdoor activities. Compared with driving, electric scooters offer a practical alternative for shorter journeys, helping riders save money on gas and on parking while avoiding traffic jams and making everyday trips more efficient.

With a broad product lineup, the Ausom Fall Sale campaign supports various riding needs, including daily commuting, recreational rides, and more demanding travel conditions.

Leading this campaign is the L2 Max Dual Motor, a premium e-scooter designed for riders who prioritize performance and value. Its powerful dual-motor system delivers up to 2,688W of peak power and a top speed of 38 mph, backed by a high-capacity battery with a range of up to 56 miles. This e-scooter also features ShocFree™ suspension, a dual swingarm suspension system built with aerospace-grade materials to improve durability and absorb road impacts from uneven surfaces. Paired with puncture-resistant tubeless tires, the suspension system provides a more comfortable riding experience for outdoor adventures in the fall.

For everyday riding, the L2 Max Dual Motor is equipped with dual disc brakes with E-ABS for responsive braking, along with a full lighting system for enhanced visibility. Practical features such as a hidden AirTag mount and NFC and passcode unlocking add convenience and security to daily rides.

Beyond the L2 Max Dual Motor, the campaign also highlights the DT2 Pro and Gosoul 2 Pro Dual Motor, offering additional options for riders looking for different levels of performance and versatility. For outdoor enthusiasts requiring greater range and performance, the DT2 Pro off-road e-scooter stands out with a 71-mile range, 2,912W of peak power, and a top speed of 40 mph. Building on the L2 Max Dual Motor’s practical feature set, the DT2 Pro upgrades the braking system to hydraulic disc brakes with E-ABS for stronger stopping power and better control.

The Gosoul 2 Pro Dual Motor e-scooter provides an affordable entry into high-performance dual-motor riding, making it an ideal choice for riders new to this level of performance. With 2,800W of peak output, a top speed of up to 36 mph, and the ability to handle inclines of up to 33%, it is a capable electric scooter for short trips, tackling hilly routes and varied terrain during fall outings. The 56-mile range supports short-distance round trips, and its foldable design allows it to be combined with public transportation for greater travel flexibility.

During the 23-day promotion, selected Ausom electric scooters will be available at limited-time discounts, with savings of up to $240. Among the participating models, the DT2 Pro, L2 Max Dual Motor, and Gosoul 2 Pro Dual Motor will offer discounts of $240, $180, and $150, respectively.
