跟孩子活動

2010年03月06日
我最希望的,感到最幸福的時候,是Q爸能每天跟孩子一起運動。
孩子若是每天一個小時的運動對身體有很大的幫助。
男孩的榜樣是自己的父親,如果父親有自覺能陪著孩子這一個小時的時間。
我覺得才算得上是理想老公。


Get active with your kids

Physical activity is a crucial part of childhood: it helps children develop strong bones and muscles, maintain a healthy weight, and discover more about the world around them. And best of all, it's great fun.
Watch a video about getting active with your kids.
All children should be active for at least one hour a day. You can help by encouraging your child to find activities they enjoy, and by building physical activity into family life. For most children, simply running around a park or playing in a playground is a real joy.
One reason that physical activity in childhood is so important is the maintenance of a healthy weight. If we don't address the rising obesity epidemic, by 2050 half of British children will be obese. On average, kids now spend four hours per day in front of their TV or games console: that's time that could be spent exercising outdoors, either with friends or the family.
But that's not the only reason. Physical activity is a part of the way children discover the world, and themselves. It helps to build strong muscles and healthy bones, and build self-confidence, too.
Bristol University's professor of exercise and health sciences, Ken Fox, has 10 suggestions that can make exercise fun for all the family.
Ten top tips
1. Walk or cycle to and from school with the kids as often as possible.
2. Build a den or treehouse with them in the school holidays. Or, under supervision, encourage them to climb a tree or two.
3. Go roller skating, roller blading or skateboarding, indoor or out. In winter, go ice skating. Kids also love scooters.
4. Do an activity challenge together, such as working towards a fun run or a walk for charity.
5. Take the dog for a walk. If you don't have one of your own, ask to borrow a neighbour's or friend's dog and take it for a walk.
6. Support your kids in sports, clubs or any other activities that may interest them. Joining a weekend club sport ensures commitment to a team and regular exercise. You can find all kinds of sporting facilities in your area at the Active Places website simply by entering your postcode.
7. Find time every weekend to do something active with your children. Play frisbee or football in the park, go trampolining or try indoor rock climbing.
8. Fly a kite. The Kite Society of Great Britain's website lists a number of groups that regularly meet for special flying days with experienced members who offer advice and assistance. Some also run kite-making workshops. Go to the website of the Kite Society for more information.
9. Try a beach holiday. When they hit the sand, children find a multitude of ways to exercise, including games, swimming, and plenty of running around. Or try an activity-based holiday.
10. The National Parks website has lists of events such as guided walks and children's fun days, for fresh ideas for active days out .
