Why do we encourage physical activity in ECEC’s?

Encouraging physical activity in the ECEC setting is important to enhance children’s physical, social, and cognitive development. By incorporating physical activity into daily routines at an early age, children learn the importance of staying active and develop lifelong habits that support their overall health.

The Munch and Move program encourage activities that are fun, engaging, and age-appropriate, creating a positive environment where children feel confident in their abilities while building the foundation for a healthy lifestyle.
