Here's the health tip. Too much sitting is bad for health! So stand up!

Researchers have found that prolonged sitting is linked to obesity, heart disease, weaker leg muscles, Type-2 diabetes, insulin resistance and higher concentrations of fat in the blood.

Children sit in school for up to four hours a day. Scientists say, "too much sitting reduces the ability to learn". Literacise™ breaks up all that sitting and helps kids learn. Check this Sitting video:

Reading and moving! By the way, reading and clicking on the link you are Literacising.
