Why Movement is so important with your child’s development?
-
Screen Time Dominance: The proliferation of digital devices and increased screen time emerged as a significant factor contributing to sedentary behavior among children today. Unlike three to four decades ago, when outdoor play and physical activities were commonplace, today's children are more likely to engage in prolonged periods of screen-based activities.
-
Reduced Outdoor Play: The study highlighted a substantial decline in outdoor play among children. Factors such as safety concerns, changing social dynamics, and an increase in structured activities have collectively led to a reduction in unstructured outdoor playtime. This decline is associated with a decrease in physical activity levels and a potential impact on overall health and development.
-
Impact on Motor Skills: The shift towards sedentary activities has been linked to a decline in fundamental motor skills among children. Activities that promote balance, coordination, and spatial awareness, essential for overall physical development, have become less prevalent in daily routines.
-
Health Implications: Sedentary lifestyles in childhood are associated with various health implications, including an increased risk of obesity, cardiovascular issues, and mental health concerns. The study emphasizes the importance of reintroducing physical activities into children's routines to mitigate these risks.
