What measures can you suggest to encourage higher levels of activüy among children? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own experience
Television has become an integral feature of almost every household in the world As a result, children undoubtedly spend more time watching television than previous generations and less time being active.
There are several reasons for this phenomenon and also a number of strategies to encourage children to be more act VC. Firstly, televisions have become much more accessible through pricc reduction. Also, interesting programmes which target children, such as cartoons, have increased in number and improved in quality, which attracts a greater number of children viewers. Another reason for the increase in television viewing is related to the amount of time young people and children have these days. Often by the time they have studied a full day, they arc simply too tired to go outside and play or do sports.
However, it is still vital that children spend enough time outdoors playing and being active. One approach which could be taken to motivate young children is to take the time to do fun outdoor activities with them, such as ice-skating or going to the beach for a swim. Running children’s outdoor fun groups and camps is another way to encourage young people to be active. As well as these, schools can run physical education classes as part of their curriculum to ensure the rccommcndcd levels of activity are completed each day. Finally, television programmes can build awareness and ideas for physical activities into their shows.
All in all, the reduction in the price of televisions together with high quality of children’s programmes and the time children have have contributed to the problem. However, as discussed above, there arc several initiatives which could help to combat the issue of increased television viewing and decreased physical activities in today’s children
