Abstract

Abstract Sports and Physical Fitness in Early Age Children. Sports activities are important for early age children. Through such activities they can improve their physical fitness and the quality of their organs, including the heart, lungs, blood circulation, energy metabolism, growth hormones, immune system, and secretion system. The improvement will result in the higher quality of their physical and spiritual conditions. Characteristics of good sports activities for early age children are that: (1) they provide a variety of movements (multilateral training) in the form of games and competitions, (2) they stimulate the development of all the five senses, (3) they develop imagination, and (4) they follow a rhythm/song and a story. Early age children’s physical fitness can be controlled by taking account of their body composition, namely by maintaining the balance between the food intake and the physical activities. Keywords: early age children, sports, physical fitness
