Quote
Active play that gets the heart pumping is important not only for health reasons but also to strengthen the heart and the lungs’ ability to take in oxygen. With regular active play, such as running through a meadow, playing flashlight tag, swimming in a pool, and skateboarding down the street, children improve the ability of the heart and lungs to support increased activity. Their stamina increases, and they can tolerate even more rigorous play.
