Exercise and play

Good food is only one part of staying healthy. Your book, Our Wondrous World (Chapter 6), says that along with good food, we also need to exercise regularly.

Playing in open fields with friends, running, jumping, cycling and skipping are all physical activities. Doing them regularly keeps us strong and full of energy. Your book shows a busy park where people play ball games and badminton, ride cycles and swing on the swings.

Yoga is another kind of physical activity. Your book says yoga improves our posture (the way we hold our body when we sit and stand) and keeps us happy and active. With your teacher's help, you can try some easy yoga poses for a week and see how you feel.
