Children become more and more sedentary spending long hours watching TV, playing video games, and interacting with computers instead of communicating with friends, parents and teachers. They struggle to keep themselves awake during the first hours or the school day because they go to bed late. This results in unproductive learning. However, physical activity conducted before school starts serves as a mood booster and a way to regenerate energy (recharge batteries). It helps students absorb and process class materials during the early morning hours. The main objective of this study was to implement an intervention of exercise and health education in school curriculum to improve children's lifestyle, nutrition, and sleep.
