A battle for more time on the playground will go to Tallahassee Tuesday.
A group of Orange County mothers will ask lawmakers to make 20 minutes of recess mandatory at elementary schools.
The group said other parents and teachers are on their side.
"We need this bill to pass. It's good for kids," said Heather Mellet.
Mellet is a mother of two and a supporter of the recess movement.
"There's a lot of pressure on all our shoulders right now," said Mellet.
The bill would require schools to make recess a part of the daily schedule.
A resolution passed in Orange County last year recommending recess, but the group of mothers wants lawmakers to take that one step further.
"You can't expect these small six, seven, eight-year-olds to sit for six hours in the day without a break. We as adults don't do that at our own jobs," said mother Amy Narvaez.
Some lawmakers said the bill could come at a cost for schools.
