Organized Activites: Benefits For Children

Children need to experiment outdoors as there is so much to learn. Children can learn in each of the areas and develop their skills. During play children are learning to socialise with each other, playing in small groups and taking turns which builds there confidence up. They also develop their motor skills through playing outdoors, running, jumping, walking and crawling. Children will learn to take risks

Regardless of how busy things become, it is important for a child to play. The benefits for a child are overwhelmingly positive both physically and mentally. Engage them in structured play as often as unstructured play. Sitting a child in front of the “tv babysitter” may seem convienent but is only hurting your child developmentally. It is important for a child to play whether it is free or unstructured and that they are engaged. Make time for them to play as children being able to play is a primary

Play and leisure are essential for physical development, emotional as well as for intellectual, educational development and achieving academically.

I believe it is more important to ensure that childern partocopate in organized activities. some of the reasons i feel this way are, it makes them responsible, helps them find out who they are, and it helps them become more social.

It important to always have activities that are developmentally appropriate or can be altered to be appropriate for the child

Creative activities are fun for children, they are suggested to help children have positive experiences and develop important characteristics and abilities which lead to a sense of purpose and achievement.

I William Cherry agree with the Benefits of Organized Activities. There are two reasons why I agree with Organized Activities more then Creative Play. One reason is because if you don't let your kids do Scout meetings, sports, or music lessons then they're going to be inside kids and will never want to go outside. Another good reason is because if your kid is always creative playing by themselves then they will never get outside and learn social skills.

Childeren should be able to participate in a organized activity. Teachers show that when childeren are in a organized activity they are able to understand how to become better teammates and to understand how working hard can accomplish goals in life. Parents also participate whith their children to create a a stronger bond. As children get older and mature they are able to have confidence in what they can acheive in life. Childrn and pareants should particiapte in a organized activity and feel happy becuase you might meet someone new.

I am Kainan Ducote,and I beileve it is important that children are able to get both imanagintive and creative play. Reasoning for saying this is because with creative play it helps them learn how to provide for them selfs. Another reason is like the passage says "They learn to lead ,follow,problem solve,and negotiate." It is very important to know how to get along with others all threw life. It is also very important to know how to negotiate if you ask me. With these reasons it also helps toughen them up.

Disability such as cystic fibrosis is an inherited gene and it controls the salt and water in and out of your cells, it affects the lungs and digestive system, so a child may be affected while taking part in sport, they may get out of breath very easy and it could also affect the foods that they eat.

I personally have three childrens and have them involve in orginized activities, and i can tell you they are very happy kids, because they do what they like. they have develope social skills, confidence, and work very hard to acomplishe their goals.

There are people who think that creative play is better for children and there are people who think that organized activities are better. I don't exactly know if one is better than the other, but I think that organized activities are better. Creative play seems great but it doesn't seem like it improves the way children think as much as organized activities do. Organized activities gives children the knowledge on how to be more like an adult.

Organized activities give children the structure they need to be able to lead productive lives as adults. Programs such as sports, band, and different organizations help children learn how to socialize. It also teaches them how to value themselves in a group.

Like the top article states "Play time is important for kids." it does help the young kids and teens get into better shape because the health issue of sitting can be major. The kids need to be restricted until maybe fifteen. Thats in my mind set though i wish my parents would have told me or forced me to go out side because i wouldnt be haveing the health issues im having now. But no matter what happens in the life time your mind is what controls you not anyone else. you can be told to go outside and play but you can just sit there and not listen.

In conclusion, allowing children the freedom of choosing what activity they are interested in creates a need for the child to think, interact and collaberate. However,organized activities are good for children in some aspects such as pride, structure,and responsibility but I still completely agree with allowing children to "play creatively". I guess you could say I wasn't allowed to play creatively as a
