Children with asthma that is under control should still get regular exercise—and even participate in sports, as long as their asthma is under control.

Controlling Asthma Triggers
You can limit your child's exposure to common asthma triggers. One way is to make changes within your home—and keep windows closed to outdoor allergens.
