Tummy timetables: World Heath Organization has lifestyle advice for kids
Geneva - The United Nations on Wednesday released its first-ever recommendations on physical activity for children under five, with disputed advice on subjects ranging from screen time to"tummy time".
But several experts noted that WHO's broad recommendations were based on thin evidence, and chastised the agency for adopting overly simplistic definitions of key terms, notably"sedentary screen time". Babies under one should also not be restrained in a pram, highchair or strapped to someone's back for more than an hour at a time and should sleep between 12 and 17 hours a day, the agency said.
Fiona Bull, programme manager for the prevention of non-communicable diseases at WHO, told reporters that the authors were fully confident in the strength of the guidelines. WHO's"glossary says that it excludes 'active screen-based games where physical activity or movement is required', but that’s not very clear in my view."
