How to Raise Physically Literate Children ~ Jenny Crockett

Did Aristotle do pushups? Or was he a couch potato who only did mental calisthenics? Jenny Crockett says that the Greeks highly valued physical exercise and spent more than 50% of their time on physical activity. Unlike those mental and physical giants, modern students lag far behind and often sacrifice form for speed. Crockett challenges schools and parents to raise children who are “physically literate." Packed full of practical advice, helpful links and inspiration, this episode will give you a framework for making physical education intentional in your school and home.
