Health & Wellness
Promoting Wellness For Children In Early Childhood
Wellness is a state of health in mind and body. A child’s wellness depends on their nutrition, physical activity level and their interactions and relationships with family members, teachers and peers.
The four areas of health & wellness are:
-
Intellectual
-
Social/Emotional
-
Physical
-
Social
Parents and teachers have a powerful influence on children’s social/emotional development.
A child’s wellbeing is strongly influenced by the wellness of the adults in their lives.
You may remember a childhood teacher who elevated your mood with their positive attitude. You may also remember a teacher who always seemed to be in a bad mood.
Those teachers had an effect on your wellbeing, how you thought about yourself and how you dealt with the challenges and successes in your life.
