Why Physical and Mental Fitness Matter for Children with Special Needs?
Physical and mental fitness are interconnected, and at Sunshine Autism Care Society, we emphasize both to ensure
holistic development for children with special needs.
Physical Fitness: Building Strong Bodies
Physical education helps children develop strength, balance, and coordination. Activities like yoga, running, and gross motor games improve cardiovascular health, reduce obesity
risk, and boost endurance.
Mental Fitness: Building Resilient Minds
Engaging in physical activities also strengthens mental health by reducing anxiety, improving focus, and enhancing mood. Children gain confidence as they master new skills and feel a sense of accomplishment.
Activities We Recommend
Interactive Games: Songs with actions, bubble chasing, and animal movement games.
- Creative Tasks: Drawing, coloring, and crafting to stimulate the mind.
- Group Exercises: Yoga, gym sessions, and team sports to encourage social interaction and teamwork.
