Dear friends, Here in our place all children, except class 10 and 12, are enjoying their vacation (class 10 and 12 are writing their exams and it will be over next week). Since the academic year is ended and waiting for the new session’s start, it is time for complete enjoyment. Both of my sons are on the play mood now. They woke up early in the morning then go out for playing football with friends in a park. I felt it is good, if I don’t allow them to play outside then they prefer to sleep long hours in morning which I don’t like. Elder one got a deep wound in his under feet two days before and he could not play as it pained for him. April first week new academic session is starting and they will be busy with studies again. Do you send children for outdoor games? What is your opinion on this, Indoor and outdoor games, which one is good for them? Image courtesy: Google

But my children are enjoying with their friends, no coaches or nothing. However, my younger son gets coaching in his school. But this year I have no plan to send him for that as the first period is missing for this coaching, as his teacher complained to me lately.

Outdoor games are good for children. Much better than computer games all the time.

Outdoor games has its own benefits always. We lack space and earlier I never prefer to send them out on fear. Now they are grown up enough to manage much friends and play safe outside.

@AKRao24 Parents are concerned on sending the children out for playing.Now I learnt, we can't keep some inside for long time, they have to be out and explore the world. We can only give the right direction as world is so bad. Thank you so much.

They deserve good sport for these youth because it's good for them to learn about team work and it's a good exercise.

Moreover, they are getting a chance to go out and play among friends at home. It is rare chance as they are busy with studies once the school reopened. On Sunday they don't want to go in morning as Christian friends are busy with Church.

Outdoor games are always best. They do not require an electronic gadget. And of course, the exercise does everyone good as well as the sunshine. Vitamin D is derived from sunlight. On rainy days, indoor games are best, especially if there is some type of game they can all play together.

I agree, recently children never get sufficient physical exercises because most of them are hooked with mobile phone or laptop or any kind of indoor games.
