A Hackensack Meridian Children&rsquo;s Health pediatrician weighs in

Brick, N.J. - August 18, 2026 - As families prepare for &lsquo;back-to-school&rsquo; time, it&rsquo;s a great opportunity to evaluate how your child&rsquo;s daily routine is structured. From ensuring a good start with a nutritious breakfast to encouraging appropriate amounts of homework time and sleep based on age, creating time for physical activity is also important. As a general pediatrician, I strongly believe that recess is not a luxury for children &ndash; it is a necessity. Children spend much of their day in structured academic settings, and recess provides an essential mental and physical reset.

From a mental health standpoint, unstructured play allows children to decompress, reduce stress, improve their mood, and return to the classroom better able to focus and learn. Physically, recess encourages movement, exercise, coordination, and healthy social interaction, all of which are critical for childhood development.

This is why I am so encouraged by the American Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) recent <a href="https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/doi/10.1542/peds.2026-077025/207527/The-Crucial-Role-of-Recess-in-School-Policy?autologincheck=redirected" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">updated policy statement</a> on school recess. For the first time in 13 years, the influential pediatricians' group has issued new guidance stressing that recess is far more than just a fun break in the day. It is a crucial requirement for a student's physical, mental, and academic well-being.&nbsp;

The AAP also strongly emphasizes that recess should be considered a child's personal time and should never be withheld for punitive or academic reasons. All too often, the students deprived of recess as a punishment are the ones who would benefit from a mental and physical reset the most.

The Physical Benefits of Daily Play
At a time when childhood obesity rates are a major concern, protecting time for movement is vital. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/obesity/childhood-obesity-facts/childhood-obesity-facts.html" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">1 in 5 children </a>and adolescents in the United States (19.7%) are affected by obesity.

The CDC recommends that children get<a href="https://www.cdc.gov/physical-activity-basics/adding-children-adolescents/index.html" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank"> at least 60 minutes </a>of physical activity every day. A protected, daily recess period is one of the most effective and consistent ways to help students reach that goal.

Equally important is ensuring that children have safe outdoor spaces where they can run, explore, socialize, and simply be kids. Outdoor play promotes creativity, independence, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. Protecting and prioritizing recess is a direct investment in the physical, emotional, and developmental health of our children.

The Pitfalls of Indoor Recess and Screen Time
Even when recess is held, I am increasingly concerned about the amount of time children spend staring at screens throughout the school day. Recent reports conclude that many schools engage in indoor recess where some kids are allowed to be on their laptops or tablets.

Extended computer and screen time use can contribute to eye strain, headaches, reduced social interaction, difficulty maintaining attention, and increased mental fatigue. When children are given access to devices instead of active recess time, they miss out on the critical movement, face-to-face interaction, and mental reset their developing brains and bodies need. Continuously allowing children to have access to screen time instead of recess essentially nullifies the essence and benefits of this crucial break.

Recess is more than just a break from academics &ndash; it is an important part of supporting mental health, physical health, emotional regulation, and healthy childhood development. We must continue to prioritize opportunities for safe, active, outdoor play during the school day.

Brick, N.J. - August 12, 2026 - The <a href="https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/158/1/e2026077414/207901/Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-and-Treatment-of" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)</a>, the nation's leading group of pediatricians, recently issued crucial new guidance to protect children and teens from iron deficiency. These updated recommendations are designed to help parents and doctors prevent severe complications, including learning and concentration issues as well as other developmental delays through improved screening, adjusted treatment protocols and dietary interventions.
Fighting Iron Deficiency
Iron deficiency is a widespread problem that can affect a child's brain development and lead to fatigue and anemia. According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2003 to 2010, at least 15% of toddlers and 11% of adolescents are iron deficient, and the numbers may be rising.
The new guidance on iron deficiency provides the following strategies and recommendations for prevention and treatment from birth through the teenage years:
<ul><li>Prevention that begins at birth with the AAP recommending iron supplements for exclusively breastfed babies by four to six months of age.</li><li>For toddlers and young children, the focus is on a diet rich in iron and limiting the amount of milk they drink, as too much milk can interfere with iron absorption.</li><li>The guidelines highlight the importance of screening for and addressing heavy menstrual bleeding in adolescent girls, a common cause of iron deficiency.</li><li>A once-daily oral iron supplement is effective for most infants, children and teens.</li></ul>
<a href="https://www.getcare.hackensackmeridianhealth.org/provider/melissa-carrie-wallach/1319843" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Melissa Wallach, M.D., FAAP</a>, pediatrician at Hackensack Meridian K. Hovnanian Children&rsquo;s Hospital at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, says these updated guidelines are a huge step forward for everyday pediatric care. &ldquo;The 'silent' problem of iron deficiency can impact everything from a toddler's development to a teenager's ability to focus in school. The new recommendations give us a clear, preventative roadmap from birth through adolescence. It's about providing the best, most evidence-based care at every stage of childhood," she said.

These new guidelines, written by medical experts and based on the latest scientific evidence, are designed to give parents and pediatricians the best tools to ensure children grow up healthy and thrive. Parents are encouraged to talk to their pediatrician about these recommendations and what they mean for their child's health.

Clogged pipes are one of the most common plumbing issues affecting homeowners in <a href="https://www.bricktownship.net/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Brick Township</a> and the neighboring areas. While some blockages develop gradually over time, others can appear suddenly and disrupt daily routines in kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry areas. <a href="https://pin.it/6ye0BXe" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Local plumbing professionals</a> note that seasonal changes, household habits, and aging plumbing systems can all contribute to drainage problems throughout the year.&nbsp;
Pipe clogs often develop gradually as debris accumulates along the interior walls of plumbing lines. In kitchen systems, grease, cooking oils, coffee grounds, soap residue, and food particles are among the most common causes of restricted drainage. Over time, these materials can harden inside pipes and reduce proper water flow. Bathroom drains present different challenges, as hair, toothpaste, soap scum, and mineral deposits frequently contribute to buildup within sinks, tubs, and shower <a href="https://proficientplumbingheating.com/drain-cleaning/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">drains</a>.
Homeowners may first notice warning signs such as slow-draining fixtures, standing water, unpleasant odors, or bubbling and gurgling sounds coming from drains. In some situations, recurring clogs in multiple fixtures may indicate a more significant blockage deeper within the main sewer line.
Older homes can be especially vulnerable to drainage issues due to aging pipe materials and long-term wear. Corrosion inside metal pipes may gradually narrow the passage available for water flow, increasing the likelihood of backups and persistent clogs. Seasonal temperature fluctuations in <a href="https://proficientplumbingheating.com/service-areas/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">New Jersey</a> may also place additional stress on plumbing systems, particularly during colder months when pipes contract and expand.
<a href="https://proficientplumbingheating.com/plumbing/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Plumbing experts</a> note that outdoor conditions can sometimes contribute to drainage problems as well. Tree root intrusion is a common issue in underground sewer lines, where roots naturally seek moisture and can enter small cracks or weakened joints in pipes.
Professional plumbers generally recommend avoiding repeated use of chemical drain cleaners for stubborn clogs, since harsh chemicals may damage certain pipe materials over time. Instead, preventative maintenance and <a href="https://proficientplumbingheating.com/plumbing/inspections/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">professional inspections</a> are often considered safer long-term solutions for maintaining healthy plumbing systems.
According to<a href="https://proficientplumbingheating.com/contact/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank"> Proficient Plumbing and Heating</a>, identifying drainage issues early may help homeowners avoid more serious plumbing complications and costly repairs later on.
Addressing clogged pipes early can help prevent more serious plumbing complications and reduce the risk of water damage inside the home. Regular maintenance, proper disposal habits, and routine inspections may help keep drainage systems functioning efficiently throughout the year.&nbsp;
