Health and wellness start young for this Dumont tot.

Guess what? That whole “modeling healthy habits for the kids” thing really does work, as the Khedekar family of Dumont discovered—even if it’s Grandma who does the modeling. Dad Jitendra captured a video of his young son, 1-year-and-three-month-old Sahil, trying out a treadmill. “The treadmill was purchased for his grandmother, and he learned how to use it on day one by watching her,” Jitendra says. “No one forced him to do it. Sahil has no fear in his heart. He loves to walk.” And the son may also be inspiring the father. “I’ve been thinking about starting at a gym for the past two years, but haven’t. And yet my son does this on his own!” Jitendra says.
