This will help blood return from the working muscles to the heart and your child's body to return to its resting state. Consider purchasing an exercise video specifically made for children. Special Precautions Never have children weight train with heavy resistances. Their bones are not developed to a point where they should be subjected to heavy loads repetitively. Make sure your child is drinking plenty of fluids.
Children tend to acclimate to heat very slowly and overexert themselves quickly.
During vigorous activity, your child should drink every 15 to 20 minutes. Provide the protective equipment that is recommended for each sport. Supervise children when they are engaged in activities that carry a risk of injury. For example, falling off monkey bars is a common cause of broken bones. Discourage your child from participating exclusively in one sport, which can lead to stress fractures.
