Children need an open environment to grow mentally and physically. In the past, children participated in activities that challenge them physically. They went to parks, played outdoor games, rode bicycles, and so on. Now, however, children are becoming dependent on technology and spending more time indoors using cell phones, tablets or television. These activities not only make them physically weak, but also tax their brains. Parents should encourage children to get outside and spend time doing physical activities.
There are little exercises for kids that they can do to keep fit and keep away diseases like obesity. Let’s take a look at the types of exercises that parents can get their kids to do that will keep them active and active.
Run
Running also helps build bone strength and muscle. Kids don’t have to run like adults, they just need to run around freely and do everything. Encourage your kids to play games that require running. Ask them to play Rat-a-tat (pakdam pakdai) or race each other, bringing out their active and lively side.
Dancing
Another physical activity that kids will love and enjoy being a part of is dancing. Play any song and have a fun dance session with your child. Just have fun, laugh, jump and let that body flow naturally to the beats of the song. It’s a full-body workout for your kid.
To skip
Skipping coordinates the whole body and builds a sense of balance in children. Give your child a rope their size and let them skip for at least 15 minutes. Be their partner and do it with them. It will also build a healthy parent-child relationship.
Frog walk, crab walk or bear crawl
Play a game with your children where they have to walk like a frog or crab. It will be funny to see them walking like this, but trust us, it helps to strengthen their thighs. Show them how to do it first and then ask them to do it later. Make up a new walk every day and play this game with them.
Stretching and yoga
If you sit with your yoga mat, let your child come with you. Make them understand the benefits of yoga and do simple asanas with them. Stretching and yoga make their bodies flexible. Yoga also helps build their concentration level and improves their breathing.
