We all have spent hours playing outside when we were kids. Now with the
advancement in technology and easy availability of smart TVs, mobile, and other
electronic devices, time for play has considerably reduced for today's
children.
Play plays an important role in your child's physical, social, and
emotional development. Play should not be treated as a leisurely activity but
should be considered an important part of your child's daily routine.
