Most kids today spend 7+ hours a day in front of a screen. The effects aren't always dramatic — they show up as restlessness, poor sleep, irritability, and a quiet retreat from physical play.

The 6 signs

1. They resist outdoor play but weren't always like that. 2. Sleep takes longer than 30 minutes. 3. Energy crashes mid-afternoon. 4. They avoid PE or team activities. 5. Posture is noticeably worse. 6. Confidence has dropped in social settings.

What structured play does

At Tribe Fortis Kids, every session targets one of 6 athletic pillars: speed, strength, stamina, agility, coordination, endurance. But from a kid's perspective, they're just playing games. The structure is invisible — the joy is immediate.
