Walking to school will help children be smarter

According to researchers, walking or cycling to school will help children focus more easily and so will understand the lessons better than getting parents to pick up or take the bus to school.

As the information published in the Daily Mail, Danish researchers say that children who are brought to school by their parents or go to school by public transport are more difficult to concentrate when they are at school.

This result is considered very shocking because the original aim of the study was to understand the impact of the school's breakfast and lunch habits on the ability to focus on learning.

Niels Egelund, head of the study, said: 'It is true that breakfast and lunch affect the child's ability to concentrate on learning. But that effect is not comparable to the effects of exercise when you tell your children to walk or cycle to school. '

According to researchers, walking or cycling to school will help children focus more easily and so will understand the lessons better.

Egelund added: 'Many people know that training will help the body get fresher. However, long-term training turns out to bring impact and support to other activities. Therefore, it is very important for parents to let their children walk or cycle to school '.
