Fitness Focus for Kids Age 2-5
Fitness Focus for Kids Age 2-5Focus on developing body awareness and response to movement stimuli using music, sounds and equipment to help develop lateral movement skills, body control eye-hand coordination and body image.
Develop spatial awareness, visual perception and fundamental motor skills, (e.g., catching, falling, running, hoping, skipping, etc.). Activities may be incorporated into fun obstacle courses, with colorful equipment and creative play set to music.
Cognitive learning may be developed through the use of specific body parts, shapes and colors.
Fantasy or make-believe games encourage children to explore movement patterns in a continuous, creative manner.
Children move with intermittent bursts of energy. Classes should be well supervised, yet loosely structured and designed to follow children’s natural energy patterns.

Child dies from drug prescribed
Child dies from drug prescribed for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
Jamal, a bright 7-year-old boy, was prescribed an antidepressant, imipramine (TOFRANIL), to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. His parents were not provided with complete, accurate information about the drug. As a result, they were unaware that the drug can cause life-threatening heartbeat irregularities (called arrhythmias), that the dose prescribed to Jamal was too high and that the tremor and convulsions that Jamal began to have were actually side effects from the TOFRANIL. Treatment with the drug was continued, and one day, while at school, he collapsed and died of an arrhythmia. If his parents had been adequately warned about this drug, Jamal might still be alive today.

Children unable to run as fast as parents
Children unable to run as fast as parents' generation, study shows
Global conference on heart fitness hears research that says each generation is getting slower and heavier than one before
Millions of children around the world cannot run as fast or as far as their parents were able to at their age, fresh analysis from the American Heart Foundation has found.
On average, it takes children 90 seconds longer to run a mile than their counterparts did 30 years ago. Heart-related fitness has declined 5% each decade since 1975, for children aged 9 – 17.
The American Heart Association, whose conference featured the research on Tuesday, said it was the first to show that children's fitness has declined worldwide over the past three decades.
"It makes sense. We have kids that are less active than before," said Dr Stephen Daniels, a University of Colorado paediatrician and spokesman for the association.
World Health Organisation numbers suggest 80% of young people globally may not be getting enough exercise.

How Physical Fitness May Promote School Success
How Physical Fitness May Promote School
Success
Children who are physically fit
absorb and retain new information more effectively than children who are out of
shape, a new study finds, raising timely questions about the wisdom of slashing
physical education programs at schools.
Parents and exercise scientists (who, not infrequently, are the
same people) have known for a long time that physical activity helps young
people to settle and pay attention in school or at home, with salutary effects
on academic performance. A representative study, presented in May at the
American College of Sports Medicine, found that fourth- and fifth-grade
students who ran around and otherwise exercised vigorously for at least 10
minutes before a math test scored higher than children who had sat quietly
before the exam…… read more

How to increase memory power during exams
BE WELL-PREPARED
Wednesday, 29 January 2014 | NEERAJ MEHTA

Class X and XII Board exams are a month away and for most students the stress and anxiety levels are running high. So they need to break the monotony and sedentary style of study. NEERAJ MEHTAsays that following an exercise regime, eating a healthy diet, keeping a good posture during study hours and sleeping for eight hours daily not only keeps the body agile, it also boosts the brain
Exams bring with them a strong sense of foreboding for most students who are going to take them. This is particularly the case when students enter the dreaded board examination years. This is when they suddenly realise that exams are a big thing. Such intense competition and pressure of securing an excellent performance tagged result put many of these little minds on the brink of pass through toilsome stressful situation. As a result what follows is a heightened anxiety level for the children. It can be very distressing and sometimes debilitating.
With the Board exams round the corner, it is important to break the monotony and sedentary style of study. Students need to exercise and correct their diet to improve their studies, to regenerate energy levels and increase the level of physical activity. By doing this, a student will be able to rise the level of concentration.
