Exercise benefits their young and active body because this will help build up stronger bones and muscles. Do remember that the kids are still developing their body and that a healthy physical activity does help.
The exercise routines need not be very complicated. There are plenty of exercise videos designed for kids available and they are especially fun for kids to do. Most of these routines involve simple dancing and moving about but it encourages the children to spend less time in front of the television or computer.
