Abstract | A questionnaire given to 221 mothers for gathering information about residential area and family size and three aspects in children's play habits: frequency, location, and choice of playmate. The results showed that there was a general tendency to play indoors rather than outdoors, regardless of residential area (urban vs. rural). Family size and the age gap between siblings were found to have a significant impact on play habits. Children with two or more siblings were more likely to play with their siblings, particularly if the age gap between them was less than five years. Playing at home with siblings means that the children in this study spent less time playing outdoors and engaging with familiar and unfamiliar peers. The results discussed in terms of the Childrens' well being and the development of social skills. Parents, professionals, and community planners should consider ways of encouraging children to play outside. (As Provided). |
