Why Kids Need Recess

Why Kids Need Recess 

 

Recess is important for children; it allows them to break from learning and engage with friends.  Recess contributes to children's physical activity levels, gives them a break from their academic work, and offers children a chance to improve their social skills. Recess is a regularly scheduled break period during the school day that allows children to engage in physical activity and play with their peers. 

There are many benefits for students when they have recess.

·      Increasing their level of physical activity

·      Improves memory, concentration, and attention

·      Helps them stay on task in the classroom

·      Reduces possible disruptive behaviours in the class

·      Helps to improve their social and emotional development

Children need more playtime, there is such an underestimate of the importance of play-based learning, physical activity improves brain function, and promotes social skills among children. It is also a major stress relief for many children.
