Physical activity is important for everybody's health. But teaching your child to be active from a young age will make him/her a physical active adult. Being inactive is a major risk factor for developing coronary artery disease. It also increases the risk of stroke and other major risks such as obesity, high blood pressure, low LDL cholesterol and diabetes. Children and adolescents should participate in at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day.
How can you promote physical activity in your child?
