Healthy parents, wholesome food, and proper clothing, will avail little where exercise is neglected; sufficient exercise will counterbalance several defects in nursing, but nothing can supply the want of it. It is absolutely necessary to the health, the growth, and the strength of children. The desire of exercise is coeval with life itself. Were this principle attended to, many diseases might be prevented; but while indolence and sedentary...
