support all countries, willing to take on this plan, in their
implementation.
Here are some handy ways in which you can help
your child cut down on their screentime and increase
their physical activity levels:
• Set up a scavenger/treasure hunt for the kids locally
in a safe area, with a non food related prize for the
winner at the end
• Limit screentime to no more than 2hrs per day (ex-
cept for school work)
• Encourage them to try a new sport or hobby over the
summer months which they might like to continue
through winter too
• Have a sandcastle building competition on the beach
• Encourage them to help you with chores around
the household
• Discourage the use of pocket money being spent on
screen related items e.g. computer games
•
Help them keep track of their physical activity levels
in a sticker chart, with a non food related prize for
the most physical activity achieved in the week
Remember to ensure everyone stays well hydrated with
increased physical activity, especially in the hot weather.
