To boost brainpower, help your child get moving

Exercise helps your child stay healthy and alert in school. It can even boost mood and memory. But gym class at school can't provide all the exercise your child needs. Children learn by example, so to make physical fitness a part of your child's life, make it part of yours. Suggest doing activities your child enjoys, such as bike riding or soccer, together. Instead of flopping down on the couch after dinner, play a game of tag or go for a family walk.
