OUTDOOR GAMES VS VIDEO GAMES (The simple outdoor pleasures missed out on by today's computer-loving children)
One of the greatest jobs of childhood is getting to explore the world outside the confines of our homes and having fun while exploring. The entire world is an undiscovered territory and being the explorer gives on immense joy and satisfaction.
Most of the time is been spent, playing outdoor, and
interacting with other children and adults. Outdoor games not only keep us
physically active and fit; playing outdoor games is also a great exercise in
enhancing social skills. It builds team spirit, confidence, good communication
and interaction skills. It helps in developing a sense of discipline in life.
With the arrival of computers and video games etc., children
prefer to stay in their homes, and this has in turn give birth to a new
sedentary lifestyle, that is much harmful than being useful. These children’s does not have explorer to outside world and their world get limited to the characters in
computers or video games. Thus this led to a production of generation which is
riddled in obesity and is socially dysfunctional. The rising cases of crime are
also a result of such a lifestyle.
The best way is to fill in younger generation the love of
outdoor sports, and ensure that they learn much more through their experience
and lesser through being stuck indoors.
