Question

                                 C

Dr Julie Coulton, a British psychologist,focuses her research on the ex?traordinary function of the play in the physical and spiritual development of children and Martti Bergson from the University of Helsinki shows that pla?ying outside, in the open air, contributes to a better development of the brain.

Thus parents must encourage their children to spend as much time as possible in the open air, and at the same time, to ask schools and kindergar?tens to assure the small playground outside. Recent statistics (數(shù)據(jù))and studies show an alarming increase of the number of hours spent by children in front of the TV and the computer and a decrease of the time spent out?side.

As a consequence more and more children suffer from eye problems and have to wear glasses. Also the problem of fatness among children concerns many parents who don't know what to do to make their children eat healthy and balanced.

Children need a space where to develop their creativity and parents should encourage them all the time. Too many rules hold back the children's personality and creativity and prevent them developing the desire to know, to find out, to learn.

If you tell your child so many times ： " Don't do that, don't mess the room, don't go there... ，，， he will lose the desire to do something, even any?thing. Parents must watch their children without suffocating(窒息)them. Should you consider they mustn't do that or this, you have to logically ex?plain them your reasons and they will understand.

Through playing a child learns how to communicate, how to take deci?sions. Playing is connected to the intellectual, emotional and social progress of the child. Playing lets your children learn how to express their feelings.
