Some people believe that children's leisure activities must be educational,otherwise they are a complete waste of time. Do you agree/disagree. Give reasons and include relevant examples.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Technological advancements and the competitive environment today have made parents more keen regarding their children's leisure activities. It is usually believed that a child's spare time should be spent in educational activities. However, I am in consummate discord of this fact and truly believe that young generation should be allowed to spend free time according to their will.
Mostly, school-goers have strict daily routine and rarely get time off for their personal activities. If, this free time is imposed on them for another conventional learning activity, then it will not be much productive. Recent research has also proven that children who spend ample amount of free time to relax in their own way, resume efficiently and prove to be better students. This clearly reveals that educating a child at all times is not necessarily fruitful.
It should also be noted that education is not limited to schools, Instead, learning is a continuous process. it can be actively pursued when interaction with the environment and our senses come to play.This can be achieved in two ways; First, parents should be taught that their children don't get overburdened with excessive training. After all, young people are not robots and they need time to relax and revive. Second, every child learns in his own way and imposing our ideas would mean to discourage his abilities of learning productively even in his free hours.
In a nutshell, it is important to believe that children should be given spare time for relaxation. In this way they can learn unknowingly with the surroundings and can resume to conventional studies with great zeal and enthusiasm.
