Question 10/10
Children and youth should engage in a minimum of:
- 30 minutes of physical activity every day
- 60 minutes of physical activity every day
- 90 minutes of physical activity every day
That's right! Children aged 5-11 and youth aged 12-17 should accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity daily. But more is even better!
To make the most of their physical activity, children and youth should try to include:
- vigorous-intensity activities at least three days per week
- activities that strengthen muscle and bone at least three days per week
