Outdoor Games

Recently, there is a tvc being played that encourages children to play outdoors.
Why? Because children have been too lazy to move and play these kinds of games because they have been too engrossed with electronic games like PS3. Not bad but then again, for me, there is more to playing with real socialization skills, creativity, laughter, accusations of unfair play and good old fun than e-games.
I for one, am a guilty parent for not encouraging my younger children to do this especially when our only son has asthma and would have difficulty breathing if perspiration will dry on his back.
In another post I wrote, I featured my children and their cousins playing a game of hopscotch outdoors, on the street. There were so many positive feedbacks with the post and I am happy that I wrote about it. I just hope schools would initiate these games in their physical education subjects so that the children would enjoy these while they are young.
