How To Improve Children's Physical and Mental Health


Improving children's mental health

Holidays and weekends are the perfect time for families to get outdoors.

Whether it's to work towards some health and fitness goals or to just improve on the mental health of children.

Many families like to go on ride bikes, visit lakes and other nature reserves, take walks or go to the local playground or park, but there are also other options for parents who want to shake things up a bit.


Do your kids need some extra support in math and English?

Teach My Kids offers specially created worksheets that focus on skills that can make lasting improvements to your child’s learning.

Choose an option that suits your child’s needs!



Engage in activities with your kids so the whole family is happy

Here are some activities for kids you could try:

  • Create a scavenger hunt that involves the whole family.
    You can do this in the local park or a nearby nature area. With a bit of planning ahead you can keep the kids scrambling and occupied for a good chunk of the day.

  • Going to the local park.
    Parents can shake things up a bit by joining in with the kids, rather than sitting on the sidelines. You can create a friendly competition or obstacle course using the slides, monkey bars, swings. and other play equipment in the park.




Activities for children beyond your local area

While there are plenty of ways to get the kids outdoors near home, there are also great opportunities for adventures a bit further away from home too.

  • You could go camping (tips for camping with kids), kayaking, to the beach, canoeing or hiking.

  • Go to a farmers market, Christmas market or farm shop.

    Children can help choose the fruit and vegetables available and then maybe even help cook with it at home!

Fresh air provides both physical and mental health benefits for the whole family

There is no doubt that family activities outdoors are good not only for everybody's fitness levels, but for everybody's mental health as well. If children or other family members are struggling with issues like depression or even addiction issues, getting outside and engaged with the rest of the family can be very helpful.

Fresh air outdoors can provide benefits for everybody's mental and physical needs. The boost children get can become a great motivator. Physical activity can help battle weight gain, obesity, and health problems, including type 2 diabetes. When paired with a healthy diet it's a good way of keeping everyone happy and healthy.

From the kitchen table

From parents who already print at home.

Real parents, phonics through to SATs.

"Teach My Kids is a fantastic resource. We use the work sheets to reinforce the Maths and English that our children, James 9 and Katie 8, are learning at school. They are ideal for when we have a spare 10 – 15 minutes, and also give us as parents the opportunity to see how much our kids know!

As and when the work sheets are completed, I log in and tick them as completed, so it’s clear which topics have been covered. I try to do 2 - 4 of worksheets a week and feel that they are of great benefit to both our children.

I would definitely recommend ‘Teach My Kids’, it’s fantastic value for money and if you have any questions or queries these are answered promptly."

Emma Robinson

"I have found the ‘Teach my Kids’ website to be very helpful and informative. The worksheets met my children’s individual needs at a time when I was struggling with ways in which to support them. They were very easy to follow have made a real impact on their confidence in Maths and English.

The website is clear and well thought out and easy for anyone to follow. Any queries are responded to promptly. A great website for parents!"

The worksheets are attractive and easy to read and follow. Excellent lively illustrations. I am impressed by the rewards systems and learning path progress.
