The Importance of Play in Childhood

Perhaps one of the greatest dangers facing children is lack of play. Glued to computers and tv monitors, children learn from an early age that life is to be experienced virtually. What are the consequences of this for later development? There are a few organizations that dedicate themselves to reversing this trend away from active play. One of these organizations is called Alliance for Children. Please visit their website at www.allianceforchildhood.org
