Healthy body

Move it!

Our bodies are amazing. We can do so much with them - swim, dance, kick footballs and ride bicycles. It's great to get off the sofa, leave telly, schoolwork and video games behind and get some exercise.

Regular exercise is a good idea because it:

  • keeps weight down
  • makes our bones strong and healthy
  • helps reduce stress and anxiety.
