21、 Playing is serious business for children. In fact , it's what they do best! Ask them why they do it! and kids will probably say, "Because it's fun." But it's much more than that. It's also good for them.
Studies shows that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get to know their new world. Brightly coloured toys and the clothing help develop a baby's sense(感觉) of sight.
Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination(想象).Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech(高技术)toy. That's because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be.
Playing doesn't become any less important once children start school. Many valuable(有价值的) lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share , take turns and play by the rules.
