SPORTS & FITNESS
Sports can develop healthy, functioning bodies for proper child growth and development.
Finally, healthy gross motor skills, as well as good-for-you benefits of being outside or in the classroom, too. While yes, the kids can get fresh air and exercise from unstructured play, they learn skills in a more specific and repetitive way with organized sports. It also gives these skills a point, and a reason for their little minds to keep working at them.
Eventually, the idea is that kids will learn what they like, and then continue cultivating their skills in a specific sport over time. This can contribute to better health in the long-run.
