Indian children like their counterparts in Western countries now have a tendency to become unhealthy adults. It is evident that parents must bear the brunt of the responsibility to correct the situation. If you are serious about increasing the levels of physical activity in your children, try these helpful tips.
1.Take Your Children Outdoors: Say an early morning cycling or after dinner walk.They may say no at first but after a few days will feel the difference.Swimming with them makes them very excited.
2.Encourage Family Sports like hide and seek,kabadi,catch-catch ,etc. This helps in increasing their physical activities and blood circulation.
3.Exercise Indoors
Yoga,aerobics and or just skipping will help them. Climbing the steps in your apartments for half hour will strenghten muscles.
"A parent's active lifestyle is a powerful stimulus for a child," says Edward Laskowski,co-director of the Sports Medicine Center at Mayo Clinic. "You are a role model for your children; set a good example by making physical activity a priority in your life."
