World's first resort for stressed toddlers

| International News | Thursday May 3 2012 8:46

Massages and foot baths are being offered at the world's first health resort for stressed out toddlers.

The Daily Mail reports toddlers as young as three are able to chill out at a kindergarten in Germany getting massages and walking through wet grass without their shoes on.

Childcare professionals warn youngsters are taking on board recession worries at an age when they can't understand what the words mean, let alone spell them.

At the kindergarten in Stuttgart where the programme is being pioneered, children have increased their resistance to catching the common cold by 60 percent in just a few short weeks of doing the anti-stress exercises.
