CHILDREN AND EXERCISE

Children feel tired mostly after a very long day at school thereby they may not want to participate in after - school activities.
But in this era that both children and adults spend more hours each day infront of the television and computers, exercise is a must.
Children can have time to run outside or play an unorganized sport, running  on a soft surface such as grass or mat, climbing small trees and monkey bars are great exercises for children but they should be supervised.
     With exercise :
 1. Children develop coordination and      creativity.
 2. Have healthy growth and development.
 3. Have stronger muscles and bones.
 4. Have leaner body because exercise helps control body fat thereby giving them a healthier range weight.

7. Are able to sleep better.
8.Have a better outlook in life.
9. Have a better self esteem
