Playing video games from various perspectives- playing outside is better

Hello. I am an employee who work at the ministry of education in Japan. To start with, let me talk about why playing outside is beneficial in the wide range and why spending too much time on video games can cause you trouble. I want to remind all of you that playing outside is definitely ideal for children but these days the matter is becoming more and more difficult. This is because the increase of traffics and crimes against children are making parents sensitive to protect the safety of them. Moreover, compared to before, there are less places for children to play which is taking the opportunities away from them. Prevalence of video games and air conditioners are additional sources which keep children indoor.

I am worried about children playing video games from several points. First of all, playing video games for long hours can suffocate your brain to develop. When it comes to young age, this problem would be even more serious since brains have potential to develop till 20 years old. What is more, sitting down while playing video games would lose your body balance and you would likely to have more risk of getting fat. Additionally, it is obvious that you will lose the skills of associating with people if you stay indoors all the time.

Now, I want to persuade you by explaining playing outside is necessary for children to develop some skills. Firstly, by taking the sunshine, you will be able to normalize your body rhythm that ultimately ends in good sleep. Good sleep is what children need to stay healthy. Also, you can raise a correspondence ability to the change of environment. Especially, I recommend children to play team sports. It does not only develop human relations but also recognising your role and making originalities or ideas of playing are good educations.

From my experience, what can be said is that while playing video games cannot leave anything for you, playing outside is necessary to gain basic strength which leads to bright future.
