90% of a child's brain development will happen before the age of 5! 🧠

What's up with boys getting muscles and girls getting body fat when puberty hits?!! Not fair. LOL

If a child has no physical activity, they will not grow their bones!

Children have immature Skeletons that are growing at varying rates based on age, nutrition, stress, and key interactions in the brain and hormonal chemistry.-Asha

Use creative and innovative teaching strategies to help stimulate brain growth....don't be afraid to try new teaching strategies.

The fact that physical activity stimulates healthy bone growth was new to me.

90% of brain development happens before the age of 5...this sound like a strong argument for TK/PreK programs

Exercising can help strengthen bones and will help students in the long run. It's also a "stimulus".

Physical activity is a potent stimulus for bone mineralization (the deposition of minerals important to the density and strength of the bone).

The high percentage of brain development prior to the age of 5 was surprising

I thought it was wild that 90% of the brain is developed by the age of 5. I have heard that your brain doesn't finish developing till the age of 26, I didn't know it was 10% still developing between the ages of 5 to 26.

Physical activity stimulates bone mineralization and growth.

Physical activity being used as a way to stimulate brain activity is a life saver when you work with an active class!

Boys develope muscle, and girls develope body fat at puberty...UGH.... clearly, a throw back to females of our species being childbarers* and males being providers...very neolithic..

Boys being slightly stronger from ages 5 to 12 than girls. I thought it was the other way around. I think its because when I was in elementary at the end of the year the boys vs girls tug of war always ended with girls winning

Overweight children have a 70% chance of becoming overweight or obese adults. This number increases to 80% if at least one parent is overweight or obese.

So sad to see and so important to help prevent.
