It’s easier to beat than you think–if you start early.
The March issue of Pediatrics reports simple lifestyle changes that reduce the chances of childhood obesity by as much as 40% in preschoolers.
These include:
- spending less than 2 hours a day on “screen time,”
- getting 10 or more hours a sleep a night, and
- eating with the family at least 5 nights a week.
Now, add a good book at bedtime and your children are well set to grow into their best!
Bonus? These are habits that will stand your child in good stead for life!
