Recreation PEI is a provincial association dedicated to promoting, coordinating & encouraging all facets of recreation, physical activity & facilities on PEI
This #WorldChildrensDay let's get every child moving and having fun safely!
Children and youth aged 5 to 17 should get at least 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity per day.
Regular #physicalactivity outside in winter is important for the physical & mental health of children.
Here is an article on layering children's clothes for activity, by the child health experts at the Hospital for Sick Children (@AboutKidsHealth).

Walking, as a #physicalactivity, spans a huge spectrum, and what you get out of it depends on what you put in. If you are someone who's currently inactive but wants to start moving more, walking can offer a range of benefits and varying levels of impact.
