It is no secret that nutrition and exercise are key components to childhood development. Based on recent studies regarding this, the USDA and APA states exactly how important it is with this generation. Over 30% of children are considered overweight, the highest it has ever been in this country. This is due to the internet and media interactions through cell phones and computers which causes a more sedentary lifestyle. Based on the statistics, this trend seems to be increasing.
