We heard much of the increase of obesity in chldren in America.

Does your child get enough exercise?

How much recess time does your child get at school?

I have been in schools where children get three recesses a day and in some where they only get one 15 minute recess at noon.

Parents, is this something you should check out at your child’s school?  Could the amount of recess affect your child’s ability to work productively  the rest of the day?

Let me know what your experience with recess has been.
