Regular exercise is important to ensure your child’s growth and development stays on track. It is recommended that children between 5 – 17 years old accumulate at least 1 hour of moderate to vigorous-intensity exercise every day. This means that the total amount of exercise a child should have in their waking hours is about 60 minutes. Additional exercise on top of the recommended amount can provide even more benefits. http://www.asiaone.com/health/why-exercise-so-important-children-health-plus
