Like adults, children need exercise. Most children need at least an hour of physical activity every day.
The benefits
Regular exercise can help children:
- feel less stressed;
- feel better about themselves;
- be more ready to learn at school;
- keep a healthy weight;
- build and keep healthy bones, muscles and joints;
- sleep better at night.
Helping children move more
As children spend more time watching TV, they spend less time running and playing. Parents can:
- limit time on TV, video games and computers;
- set an example by being active themselves — exercising together can be fun for the whole family;
- encourage sport and play: competitive sports help children stay fit, and walking or cycling to school, dancing, bowling and yoga are other good ways to be active.
