- Abstract
Also for the age 9-10 the increase of static games, the disappearance of the old courtyard games, the reduction of motor activities in scholastic period are the causes that, in our opinion, have led to a reduction of FMS (3). To solve these problems, the following actions seem mandatory: 1)Increase the time inside the scholastic system devoted to physical activities;2) Direct teaching and didactics strategies to activities involving gross-motor abilities;3)Foster the promotion of active politics for the safeguard of the natural environment; 4) Support a closer interaction and collaboration between scholastic system, out-of-school sportive system and families, in order to enhance a better lifestyle necessary to preserve children health.
