You can’t stop the
future
You can’t rewind the
past
The only way to learn
the secret…
is to press play.”

My parents and family
experiment with play by letting me go outside do activities like kickball, jump
rope hop scotch, and skating. Skating was my life and my mother brought me my
first pair of skates. They were white skates with red wheels. I was so excited.
This helps me with my physical and cognitive skills. My play was explored more
outdoors with nature and play with my childhood or classmates at school.
I feel like that play
is different from the time I use to play because technology has taken over.
Children have computer, Ipads, video games, cell phones, so they don’t ha I do
not see the children outside playing until the street light come on. When we
play as kids we play hard that we did not have a choice but to take a bath
because we were sweaty and you play hard all day.
My play as a child
was a wonderful experience. I was able to experiment with nature of making playing
with dirt making mud pies, and I would skate all day in the street down hills
with no knee pads or helmet back than because we did not need them. I love to
skate but I will skate after my homework was done and chores were finish and I
would skate until the street light came on. Play has helped to understand a
child’s development by using their cognitive, language, social/emotional
development.
