Kids activities after school

June 30, 2014 By Shaz Fisher Leave a Comment

Two children students returning to schoolNight time activities for kids can be good because it means the days are left free, but nights become late and kids become tired and adults too! When kids are overloaded this can effect their growth mentally and physically.

Makes sure your child is not as busy as Johnny:

Monday afternoon – Johnny attends soccer training

Tuesday night– Johnny goes to karate 4-5pm

Wednesday afternoon– Johnny swims in his squad team from 4-5pm

Thursday-Johnny attends Scouts from 6-7.30pm

Friday night- Johnny goes to little athletics from 6-9pm

Saturday- Johnny plays soccer and the time changes

Life is busy and we have to make sure, while kids must not sit in front of the television constantly, they are also not constantly overloaded with too much activity. Balance is vital when we are trying to keep kids healthy and busy and well rested.

Five Questions to ask yourself to see if you child is overloaded:

1. Are they getting 10 hours of sleep per night?

2. Are they at home most nights for at least 2 hours before bed?

3. Do they eat healthy meals at home regularly?

4. Do they have at 2 afternoons a week free when they are not committed to a regimented activity?

5. Are they handling their school work and alert at school?
