Play time is a very important part of childhood. These days, with such heavy schedules with homework, ball, dance, etc., it is hard for kids to find the time to play constructively with other kids.
Below is an excellent video, on playing with confidence. Lately, it seems with all the bullying going on in schools, and the whole 'grow up earlier' with girls and boys, they need to have the confidence to play and the time to play. Additionally, kids are so into video games these days, that there is very little outdoor play time with others. I was very intrigued with the video and information that I learned.
