Walking or scooting to school even 1 day a week is a fun way for you and your child to get some exercise. Tell a child they will be scooting to school and suddenly, miraculously, school shoes are put on, school bags are found, teeth are brushed – it really is a modern day school run miracle.
‘CHILDREN WHO PERFORM SHORT BURSTS OF ACTIVITY,
AMOUNTING TO AN HOUR A DAY SEE SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENTS
IN THEIR ABILITY TO PAY ATTENTION, AVOID DISTRACTION
AND SWITCH BETWEEN COGNITIVE TASKS.*
