Get Kids Involved in American Heart Month!
Posted on Feb 24, 2017
Exercise is just as important for kids as it for adults. The experts recommend kids exercise for one hour each day to help them stay healthy, focus in school, and learn important skills. But exercise doesn't have to be boring! Active play at Monkey Joe's is just the ticket to teach kids about heart health for American Heart Month. What are the best benefits of exercise for kids? Here five health benefits of active playtime that are great for kids of young ages.
- It makes their hearts strong
- It enhances emotional well-being by reducing stress
- It promotes healthy habits that will carry them into adulthood, keeping their hearts healthy for years
- It lowers blood sugar levels, which benefits the heart
- It strengthens muscles and bones
So how can you get the kids to exercise without getting bored? After all, nobody likes calisthenics. The best way to encourage active play is to play as a family at Monkey Joe’s! The kids will have an amazing time playing on our inflatables playground. They'll get to run around, slip down bouncy slides, and jump until they're breathless and laughing. They may think you're giving them an awesome treat, but they'll also be getting the exercise they need to keep their hearts happy. It's American Heart Month and we're helping you become more aware of the many benefits of proper exercise. As important as activity is for adults, it’s just as important for your kids. Bring them in and start them on a lifetime of fun activities that will help their hearts stay strong. We even have a dedicated play area for toddlers! A trip to Monkey Joe’s Camp Hill can be effective, and it’s something your kids won't get tired of. So come on in and play!
