\nI’m going down to play” is a phrase that many of us have uttered countless times throughout our childhood.\u00a0Today, fewer and fewer children repeat it during fewer and fewer years of their lives: according to some studies, children play less than before \u2013an hour and a half a day\u2013 and stop playing\u00a0<\/span>with toys earlier<\/span><\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0In the cited study, parents say that, from 7-9 years old, many prefer electronic devices.<\/span><\/p>\n

The appearance of these devices, life in big cities where going outdoors is less autonomous and safe, long school days with extracurricular classes: there are several factors that may be behind this trend.\u00a0But, beyond its causes, what consequences can it have?<\/span><\/p>\n

The importance of the game<\/strong><\/h4>\n

For years now we have known about the importance of children’s play due to its contribution to development and learning.\u00a0<\/span>Some investigations<\/span><\/a>\u00a0carried out in the USA warn of the connection between the decrease in time dedicated to free play and the increase in anxiety and depression in children and adolescents.<\/span><\/p>\n

The game has been present in all cultures and times as evidenced by\u00a0<\/span>the archaeological remains of some toys<\/span><\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0Human hatchlings go through an extensive stage of biological immaturity that makes them dependent on adults for their survival, and during this stage they spend much of their time playing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their immaturity allows them to take advantage of the game, through which they can rehearse behaviors, simulate situations, practice behaviors, learn to control their attention and emotions, learn elements of the social context and gradually incorporate into the adult world.<\/span><\/p>\n

In short, these children’s activities contribute positively to\u00a0<\/span>human development<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in all its dimensions:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Physics: stimulating the evolution of the nervous system.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Psychomotor: promoting balance and muscle control.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Cognitive: developing thinking and creativity.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Social: making contact with peers possible and learning rules of behavior.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Affective-emotional: seeking pleasure, psychological balance or self-control.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Learn to live<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    There are multiple human behaviors that we include under the label of gambling, hence its complexity and the difficulty of defining and categorizing it.<\/span><\/p>\n

    As a result of the diversity of approaches and conceptual frameworks from which the investigations have been raised, it is not surprising to find that for each area of \u200b\u200bchild development there is a form of play.<\/span><\/p>\n

    However, they are usually classified into five major types: physical play, with objects, symbolic, simulation or sociodramatic, and rules.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Physical<\/em><\/a>\u00a0play\u00a0includes\u00a0active play<\/em>\u00a0with activities such as jumping, climbing, playing ball, etc., which begin to develop from the second year of life, along with fine motor activities such as cutting or coloring, and rough\u00a0<\/span>play <\/span><\/a>.<\/em>\u00a0, typical of the preschool stage, which is performed with others and includes struggling, kicking and fighting through which children learn to control their aggressiveness.\u00a0These games help not only motor and sensory development, but also foster the ability to establish attachment bonds and develop understanding of emotional and social skills.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Play\u00a0<\/span>with objects<\/span><\/em>\u00a0begins in the first few months when babies are able to grasp and hold objects.\u00a0They start by rubbing objects, hitting them, dropping them… until later they manage to order them, classify them, make constructions with them, etc.\u00a0These are activities that serve as mechanisms for exploring the world around them.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. The\u00a0<\/span>symbolic<\/span><\/em>\u00a0game, which appears between the ages of 2 and 3, is focused on the use of symbolic systems such as language, reading, drawing or music and favors the development of abilities to reflect on experiences, emotions, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Pretend or fictional<\/span><\/a>\u00a0play\u00a0, in which objects are transformed to represent others (a broom represents a horse, a finger acts as a gun…), appears around the first year and is a way of developing abstract thinking,\u00a0for<\/em><\/a>\u00a0which has implications for their future cognitive, social and academic abilities.<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Rule<\/em><\/a>\u00a0games\u00a0range from outdoor games, such as hide-and-seek or sports activities, to\u00a0<\/span>board <\/span><\/a>or<\/span><\/a>\u00a0electronic games.\u00a0These games allow developing an understanding of the rules and aspects of social life such as taking turns, sharing or understanding the perspectives of others.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Cities and the great outdoors<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      In recent decades, and due to the progressive incorporation of a large part of the population into cities, there has been a constant decline in face-to-face, traditional, and outdoor games in favor of structured games, organized sports, and extracurricular activities.\u00a0For this reason, some\u00a0<\/span>research<\/span><\/a>\u00a0suggests that children play less today than decades ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

      There is also an increase in technology-based games (video games, virtual and augmented reality).\u00a0As a curious note, despite their detractors, it has been observed that these games\u00a0<\/span>provide necessary skills<\/span><\/a>\u00a0that respond to the characteristics of technological societies (agility in decision-making, problem solving, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n

      Play for a lifetime?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      Regarding its implications for learning, the game is an essential children’s activity that\u00a0<\/span>contributes positively<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and can be used as\u00a0<\/span>a pedagogical tool<\/span><\/a>\u00a0by parents and teachers due to its motivating, fun and pleasant nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

      In this line, in educational contexts game dynamics such as gamification<\/span><\/em>\u00a0are applied\u00a0, with the aim of involving students in school tasks, engaging them in learning processes and\u00a0<\/span>improving their performance<\/span><\/a>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Human adults continue to preserve these behaviors that in other species only define infant members.\u00a0Regardless of age, play plays an important role in people’s lives, being for some a way of training and practicing new skills and behaviors in a safe environment, while for others it is a way of promoting social interaction and connection with others.\u00a0In general, gaming can have several mental and physical health benefits, such as reducing stress, improving creativity, and problem solving.<\/span><\/p>\n

      In short, play is not just an activity for children, but it can be an important part of life for people of all ages.\u00a0The potentialities of the game are at the base of the development of higher order problem-solving, cognitive and socio-emotional capacities developed by human beings.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Play is necessary to reach our full human condition, which is why it is rightly recognized by the UN not only as an opportunity but also as a\u00a0<\/span>right for children<\/span><\/a>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n
