🌟 Physical Activity Guidelines for Children & Young People (5–18 Years) 🌟

The UK Chief Medical Officers’ Physical Activity Guidelines recommend that children and young people aim for an average of at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day across the week. 🏃‍♀️⚽🚴‍♂️

Physical activity helps to:
✨ Build confidence and social skills
✨ Develop co-ordination
✨ Improve concentration and learning
✨ Strengthen muscles and bones
✨ Improve health and fitness
✨ Maintain a healthy weight
✨ Improve sleep
✨ Boost mood and wellbeing

Activities can include:
🏃 Running and walking
🚲 Riding a bike
🏊 Swimming
⚽ Sports such as football or tennis
🛹 Skateboarding
💃 Dancing
🧗 Climbing
🎯 Active play and PE
🚶 Active travel

All activities should make children feel warmer and breathe faster. Spreading activity throughout the day and reducing inactivity can make a big difference to health and wellbeing. 💛

Did you know that regular physical activity is essential for young children’s growth, development, and wellbeing? From tummy time for babies to running, climbing, dancing, and outdoor play for toddlers and preschoolers, being active helps build strong bones, muscles, confidence, and social skills. 💪🎨⚽

Encouraging active play every day supports:
✨ Healthy growth and development
✨ Better sleep
✨ Communication and social skills
✨ Coordination and balance
✨ Happy, healthy minds

Simple activities like singing action songs, playing in the park, riding scooters, or exploring nature can make a big difference while having lots of fun! 🌈🌳

Let’s help our little ones stay active, curious, and healthy every day! 💛
