  1. Playing, reaching, grabbing, and having “tummy time”
    • According to 2 sources
    Physical activity for babies doesn’t have to be anything fancy. Simple things like playing, reaching, grabbing, and having “tummy time” (always with an adult watching!) help babies grow and develop into healthy children. Remember, a swing or bouncy seat doesn’t count as active play. Be sure to limit the amount of time your baby spends in these.

    How do you encourage physical activity in a child?
    Dedicate time every day for active play. Limit time spent in items that restrict movement (car seats, strollers, bouncy seat, etc). Establishing the habit of physical activity early in infancy is logical, especially considering the well-documented lack of physical activity in children under 5.

    What is the average amount of exercise for a child?

    Depending on their age and developmental state, different levels of exercise are advised for children. Preschoolers (ages 3-5) should participate in active play throughout the day, including a mix of organized and unstructured physical exercise, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Aim for at least an hour of moderate to vigorous physical exercise per day for children and teenagers (ages 6 to 17), combining aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. While swimming, bicycling, and brisk strolling are examples of moderate exercise, running, playing hoops or soccer, and jumping rope is examples of vigorous exercise. Limiting sedentary activities like time spent in front of screens and extended times of sitting are also crucial by encouraging kids to participate in routine physical activity.
