[quote=Anonymous]These articles get to the heart of it for me: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2014/10/07/the-right-and-surprisingly-wrong-ways-to-get-kids-to-sit-still-in-class/ http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2014/07/08/why-so-many-kids-cant-sit-still-in-school-today/ It's not about the playground, per se. It's about having space where kids can run around and burn off some energy. Although in my experience, with my two active kids, "outdoor space" without playground equipment just doesn't cut it. They get much better quality of play/exercise when there is actually playground equipment. They play "harder" and longer.[/quote]
