Kids health should involve regular exercise where the heart rate is working at 65-75% of maximum heart rate. For a child this is when a child is puffing and struggles to maintain a conversation. Exercise programs for kids health isn't just about structured activities that involve running, cycling or swimming. Exercise can include unstructured routines where the kids could be walking the dog or playing with friends in the backyard. Kids health is not just about the physical components but also the mental feeling of kids.
