Old-Fashioned Play－For Pay

　　Kids!Come have a ball!Or 60,000 of them!There’s a new type of business franchise that is appearing in shopping malls and neighborhoods across America offering pay-per-use indoor playgrounds ,which feature toys ,games ,supervised fun and a workout that doesn’t break the family bank．

　　As public playgrounds grow increasingly worn and dirty, the for-profit centers offer clean, safe supervised activity as well as a variety of challenging exercises to develop youngsters’ physical fitness, usually for a fee of around 5$ an hour．“Playgrounds are dirty ,not supervised,” says Dick Guggenheimer ,owner of the two-month-old Discovery Zone in Yonkers, N.Y., part of Kansas City-based chain, “We are indoors; we are padded(鋪上軟墊)；parents can feel their child is safe”．

　　In order to satisfy the need of two-earner families ,the new franchise stayed open in the evenings ,long after traditional public playgrounds have grown dark and unusable．However these new playgrounds are not meant to be day-care centers．Parents are expected go stay and play with their kids rather than drop them off．But several also provide high-tech baby-sitting services．At some of the Discovery Zones, parents can register their children in special supervised programs, then leave them and slip away for a couple of hours to enjoy a movie or dinner．If there is a problem ,Mom and Dad are called．

　　The most fun of all, though, is getting to do what parents used to do in the days before two-earner families and two-hour commutes; play with their kids．That ,at least ,is old-fashioned, even at per-hour rates．

　　“That must be a mistake, Mom,”he said．“Maybe there was an error in the computer．”He assured me that he had not been skipping school．

　　“Oh, Ms．Chandler, I’m so sorry．We are planning to inform all the parents that there was a glitch in the reporting of the days absent for all the kids．I don’t think any of them went out correct．”Chris was here when he says he was here．

　　I was relieved that everything was all right, and as I left his office the vice principal said to me,“Hundreds of report cards went out with the wrong number of absences, but you’re the only parent who has called or stopped in to check up on it．”
