Fitness
and Physical Activity
for Young Children
Children who are active have a
lower chance of becoming overweight, have increased self-esteem
and reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety. Children
need to be fit, strong, flexible, and stable as well as develop
stamina.
The purpose of this training is to
promote fitness and explore appropriate activities for young
children. By integrating daily physical activity through
play, teachers and caregivers will not only promote healthy
development for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, but also
will encourage development of lifelong fitness habits.
Program includes recommendations and instructions for
appropriate physical activities for each age group - infants,
toddlers, and preschoolers.
