So we have to keep in mind the environment to keep our kids healthy amdist this lockdown.
They should be made to exercise rdd regularly. Exercises like skipping , stretching, situps etc. Should be done by kids. Even we ,parents, should accompany them in the exercises firstly to keep ourselves fit too and secondly setting them a personal example and as a source of motivation for them to carry on with the daily exercises.
They should be fed a balanced diet. Proper food , even during these lockdown, should be provided to the children so that they remain healthy. If possible juice, curd, all sources of protein and especially green vegetables should be provided to the children through appealing yet healthy foods.
Sleeping patterns should not be changed.
Proper sleep even during this lockdown should be maintained. Timely going to bed and waking up should be maintained to ensure a good quality of rest to the kids body.
Other than just food and physical exercises, mental exercises should be done. They should be made to play indoor games to keep them rejuvenated even when they are restricted at home.

Home is the primary and immediate area of socialization. So it is important for us to make the home an interesting and fun place and a very compatible and friendly environment to promote and maintain healthy relationships between all the members and most importantly.
All of us due to the technological advancements, are mostly into our mobile phones. We can use games and apps on our phones to keep them engaged in the process of learning.
We can also do some healthy family bonding activities so that they enjoy some quality time with the family and learn from it at the same time.
One of the best way is by playing group games. Board games like Ludo, snakes and ladders and chess. These games help maintaining solidarity and friendliness amongst the family members and could cater to increase the thought processes and iq level of children. Playing dumb charades , antakshari, singing , dancing and organizing small quizzes among the members helps in building the kid's morale and through quiz, his general knowledge increases.
You can binge watch family movies, comedy movies, historical and informative movies so that everyone will enjoy and kids will learn out of it.
Games like monopoly etc might help to provide some quality time. Games like crosswords, scrabble will help increase their vocabulary and knowledge.

Reading them stories and books will increase their literary skills, and their knowledge of books. 

All these activites, including organzing quizzes from their academic books will help increase their brainpower and develop them better.

That's All folks
