How playgrounds can help keep children fit

Xbox, Playstation, Lego and Pokemon trading cards. Whilst all of these are great games and fun for our children to play, plus they can provide learning opportunities, They do not promote a healthy lifestyle. As a result the levels of children being overweight and even obese has increased. Added to the fact that we no longer allow our children out without supervision and the recent lockdowns children have never been more inactive.

Thank goodness then for the Playgrounds Cheltenham based supplier https://www.greenfieldsltd.co.uk/services/playgrounds-and-parks. They can provide large or small bespoke play areas for children to run around in and explore to their heart’s content. It also builds friendship and bonds that can last a lifetime.

Playgrounds help promote fitness as they act as a workout for the child as they run around the park. Climbing will build muscles and coordination. Swings will develop core strength and roundabouts will help to tone their sensations of motion and movement. We pay huge sums of money each month for guns and to use the equipment in them but the best start in life for our children’s physical strength and well being can be found here in the playground. It’s also very good for their mental health as well. It is not just the physical side of things that has seen a decline. Mental health has also suffered over the last few years and the ability to run around the playground, make lots of noise and express oneself is also a massive benefit.
