This discussion is your opportunity to explore the value of play in an outdoor setting as it relates to child growth and development. Evidence suggests that with the proliferation of portable handheld and web-enabled devices, such as tablets or smartphones, many young children are no longer spending as much time outside engaged in physical activity. Instead, we might argue that today many youth are self-consumed and are spending more time in front of a screen and in relative isolation. From obesity to poor social skills, indoor play is arguably taking its toll on children. However, we know that physical outdoor play activities, such as gardening and riding bikes, has many positive benefits for overall physical and mental health. This discussion will help you shape your personal framework regarding outdoor play for the Week Five Final Paper.
