Physical Activity in Primary School Children

Physical activity is essential to the development of children and builds the foundation for a healthy and active life. Because of inappropriate food choices and sedentary lifestyle, children become overweight and obese, leading to physical, social and behavioral health problems. Increasing indoor activities such as seeing high-calorie foods, TV and computer games is spurring this unhealthy lifestyle epidemic. In order to solve and prevent this crisis, an increase in physical activity in the middle of childhood (8 to 12 years old) plays an important role.

School is a good opportunity to promote children's sports activities. Literally, they have "captured audience". Regardless of whether it is rest, sports or sports, the ability to open sports activities is school - specific. Since nearly 50 million students go to school, is there a place suitable for children to participate in daily sports activities? Games, sports, sports, rest, sports are all valuable parts of childhood. In the past ten years, the benefits of all people were at the forefront of the scientific literature. Knowledgeable parents, educators, or doctors no longer ignore anyone's important in promoting the development of healthy children.

The vast majority of young people go to school for hours. Schools have important sports infrastructure essential for the education and health of children and adolescents, and physical activity promotes health and learning. Schools will be given priority, especially if you have opportunities to improve your academic performance. As I mentioned in Chapter 1, the school has been at the center of other important health-related programs for many years. It includes screening, immunization, and nutrition and drug abuse programs. Unfortunately, school-related sports are diversified, depending on the state, region, and even the school. Inter-university sports and in-wall sports are another traditional opportunity for physical activity, but a significant proportion of young people can not use it.
