A healthy child is an active child!

In today’s digital age, we cannot ignore the importance of sport in our daily lives. Physically active habits are formed in childhood, and it is essential for children to be aware of the value of their bodies and move with joy. In order to promote children’s physical activity, it is important to use creative approaches and special motivation.

How can we motivate children to exercise more in their free time?

First and foremost, family support is important. Parents who participate in sporting events set an example for their children and encourage an active lifestyle. Families are a great motivator for a healthy lifestyle, offering shared plans for weekend activities. Children need to see that physical activity is not only healthy but also fun and a shared family activity.

It is also important to encourage educational institutions to engage in the provision of physical activities!

Recommendations:

• Ensure high-quality physical activity education.
• Monitor regular physical education classes in all educational institutions.
• Increase the number of physical education classes in primary and secondary education.
• Develop training programs and information materials for teachers to promote physical activity development.
• Provide a supportive environment for physical activity in educational institutions.

Movement is essential to life. We are made to move. That’s why it’s so important to encourage children to enjoy the joy of movement with swings, sandboxes, playhouses, and other activities. Children who grow up with positive experiences in physical activity are more likely to develop long-term habits and see movement as an integral part of life. This positive attitude towards physical activity can have a lasting impact on their health and well-being.
