ABSTRACT
This chapter suggests for younger children for putting on an assembly about why exercise is beneficial and on preparing a presentation for a healthy heart campaign. Older children are encouraged to make and to play a Top Trumps game about the value of different forms of exercise and discusses activity focusing on attitudes to school sports. The chapter helps to understand how exercise keeps your body healthy and the beneficial effect of activities varies. The chapter shows how exercise keeps the heart and body healthy. Invite groups to imagine that they have been employed to organise the Healthy Heart campaign which is to be run during Healthy Heart week. Their job is to promote awareness of the benefits of exercise by organising events such as a super sports day and running an advertising campaign that encourages people to exercise daily. The chapter discusses attitudes towards exercise and sports and increases awareness of the physical and mental benefits of exercise.
