Classrooms should display standard eye charts for monthly vision tests, with eye exercises performed twice daily. Maintain proper reading posture: 3.3 cm between fingers and pen tip, 6-7 cm between chest and desk, and 33 cm between eyes and books. Limit screen time to under 2 hours daily while ensuring at least 3 hours of outdoor play for preschoolers and 2 hours for school-aged children.
Active Bodies, Healthy Minds
Children aged 5-17 need minimum 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic activity daily (running, swimming, cycling, ball sports, etc.), with no more than 1 hour of continuous sitting. Regular movement supports both physical and cognitive development.
Nutrition for Growing Bodies
For ages 2-5: Daily meals should include 12+ food varieties (25+ weekly) across grains, vegetables, fruits, proteins, with 350-500ml milk. Older children (6-17) require balanced portions of whole grains (1/3+ of staples), produce, proteins and 300ml milk equivalents daily.
Mental Health Awareness
Watch for subtle warning signs: persistent sadness/anxiety, social withdrawal, academic decline, or unexplained physical symptoms like sleep disturbances. Early professional intervention is crucial when behavioral or emotional changes appear.
Safety First
Prevent common accidents through: proper car seat use, pedestrian safety education, home hazard proofing (window guards, corner cushions, locked chemical storage), and constant water supervision. Parents should learn emergency procedures like Heimlich maneuver and burn care.
Quality Sleep Essentials
Insufficient sleep harms brain development and growth. Establish consistent routines, create restful environments, limit pre-bed stimulation, and provide emotional support to help children achieve age-appropriate sleep durations.
