Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) March 2, 2006 -- Bend at Your Knees…If You Please! is the third book in the I AM a Lovable Me! Self-empowerment series. Written by Sharon Penchina, CHT, and Dr Stuart Hoffman, Bend at Your Knees…If You Please! offers exercises to encourage good posture in children; helping them to love, respect and care for their bodies.
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, combining regular physical activity with a healthy diet is the key to development of a healthy lifestyle. Parent scan instill a love of exercise in their children---and these habits can last a lifetime.
Here are some tips for raising a “physically-fit” kid:
| | - Help your child participate in a variety of activities that are right for his or her age.
- Establish a regular schedule for physical activity.
- Incorporate activity into daily routines, such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator.
- Embrace a healthier lifestyle yourself, so you'll be a positive role model for your family.
- Keep it fun, so you can count on your child to come back for more
|
Penchina and Hoffman firmly believe that the importance of family, healthy eating, exercise, imagination, and enjoying life are part of a solid foundation and deserve to be cultivated during youth to create a healthy lifestyle for a lifetime.
Good posture promotes a more restful sleep, better digestion and self-confidence. The AAP says that children who participate in regular physical activity are less likely to develop health problems, broken bones or weight problems. Exercising and reading with your child on a daily basis not only provides a time for family bonding and fun but helps everyone look forward to increased strength and energy.
