Here are the top Three Ways Routine Exercise Helps Children's Brains Get Ready to Learn

  1. More attention and memory - Exercise increases the blood flow to the brain which increases alertness, focus and concentration. With blood flow comes both oxygen and glucose which give the brain the fuel it needs to make the most out of learning!
  2. Decrease impulsivity - Routine exercise has been proven to improve cognitive functioning which allows our children to plan better and refrain from impulsive behavior. 
  3. Decreased Stress and Improved mood - Moderate to rigorous exercise has been proven to release the feel good chemicals in the brain (endorphins, dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin). These chemicals reduce the feelings most commonly associated with stress and increase mood for up to 90 minutes post exercise.
