Factors that are considered for a child to be healthy

There are some necessary things a child needs to be healthy.

For a child to be healthy they need daily diet intake that will supply various vitamins which the body needs to be healthy.

Fresh fruits intake.

Children needs daily intake of fruits like

  And many more.

Physical exercise.

Try as much as possible best to engage on physical exercise with your children, it helps them to be physically fit, not just that it also helps to save them from being depressed.

More to that physical exercise helps to build a child's heart muscle, helps to build a stronger bone on them, gives them healthy growth and builds a child self-esteem.

Physical exercises includes engaging them on daily Jogging, dancing, running, walking,hiking.

All this factors keeps a child not just healthy but very healthy.
More to that it serves the parents from visiting the hospital often because they will be rarely ill.

Conclusion

Sometimes because of ignorance we might think that the above mentioned factors are for the rich or that they are unattainable, simply stated they are very close to us, because we have different kinds of fruits around us, if one is costly the other one might be cheap, just make it a custom having in mind the benefits that comes from our children taking healthy diet.

When you come to physical exercise, it use to be a kind of difficult because of tight schedule, but it should be part of our lifestyle to engage our children in physical activities.
