Active Start: A Statement of PA Guidelines for Children

Active Start: A Statement of PA Guidelines for Children
SHAPE America has updated and revised this document to address the physical activity needs of children from birth to age 5. This new edition complements other current national consensus documents addressing physical activity recommendations for children birth to age 5, and it incorporates new information found in research studies. The document also offers the reader an expanded list of activities to implement with a particular age level. It is SHAPE America’s goal to give all children from birth to age 5 an active and healthy start to developing lifelong habits of daily physical activity. The 2020 recommendations in this document are intended to highlight the responsibility of adults who interact with infants, toddlers and/or preschoolers to promote movement and motor competency and establish healthy patterns of physical activity and exploration of the physical environment. In turn, those experiences can enhance children’s overall physical, cognitive, and social development.
