Active Kids

Physical activity positively impacts the bodies, minds, and emotions of children, but unfortunately, most children are physically active only 15 minutes a day! Through fun, easy-to-follow activities, enhanced by photographs and illustrations, Active Kids will motivate children to get moving. Kids will learn about - how the cardiovascular system works - the building blocks - cardio, flexibility, strong muscles - warming up and cooling down - safety guidelines - how much is enough? How kids can get started - making a list of activities they like to do - activities specifically for the heart, improving range of motion, and endurance - keeping track of your progress - are you fit? - how to be active individually or with friends and family
