Here are our top tips for fostering an active lifestyle in children, promoting both mental and physical well-being:

• Be a Role Model: The most effective way to encourage physical activity in children is to be active yourself! This doesn't require a gym membership or running marathons. Simple choices like walking to the store instead of driving, making time for outdoor play, or incorporating activities like swimming or cycling into your leisure time can make a big difference.
• Make Exercise Enjoyable: The most engaging forms of exercise often feel like pure fun! Introduce games that encourage movement and getting active. Our 7-in-1 Card Games feature "Jump and Say," a dynamic game where players jump along a line of face-down cards, pick up the card they land on, say what's pictured, and keep it. This quick and simple game is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers, promoting activity even on rainy days.

• Gift for Outdoor Play: Non-electronic games and toys that encourage outdoor play are excellent for increasing physical activity while having fun. Sports equipment like balls and hula hoops are ideal for gardens or parks. Bubbles are another inexpensive option that provides endless entertainment, inspiring children to run, chase, stomp, and clap.
  
• Socialise Through Activity: Most children enjoy spending time with peers, and group activities are a fantastic way to boost physical activity. Organise playdates at a local park, garden, or even your own backyard. With more participants, you can play group games like tag, football, catch, and classic playground games such as "What's the Time, Mr. Wolf" or "Duck, Duck, Goose."

• Manage Screen Time: It's easy to rely on TV or tablets when you're busy. While moderation is acceptable (and sometimes essential for tired parents!), be mindful of how much time your children spend in front of screens daily. Establish healthy boundaries for TV and mobile device usage, and when the allotted time is up, offer alternative activities. Colouring books, story CDs, and listening and dancing to music are all great ways to reduce screen time and protect children's health and well-being.

Encouraging children to be more physically active doesn't have to be a struggle. Make exercise a positive family experience rather than a chore. By embracing a more active lifestyle, your family will enjoy improved physical and mental health, and potentially even reduce household bills by spending less time indoors with electronic devices.
