​Also, 70% of them spend more than 2 hours a day in front of a screen? Get Your Family Moving:

Inactive kids are more likely to become inactive adults!
Toddlers should be physically active every day for at least 3 hours on average.
Children and teenagers should have moderate to vigorous intensity activity every day for at least 60 minutes.
Active kids have better self-confidence and better concentration levels.
Active kids have stronger muscles and bones.

Plan family activities that involve walking, cycling, and running, etc.
