A playground is a place that is purely dedicated to children. ‘Children’ means a specific aged human being who isn’t teen yet. From a common ground, we consider the kid who is below thirteen as children. As we know, a human being can’t live alone, and in terms of a child, it’s impossible to survive without guidance. A child needs proper guidance from family members, surroundings, and friends too.
Specifically, who are below thirteen, they prefer children playground equipment to play with. So, many of the parks and playgrounds are decorated with the children-friendly equipments. Mostly the combination of playgrounds structured for small children with slides, climbers, playhouses, etc. Sometimes we find some colorful balls also. To play in such equipment, a child needs company; it can be parents, siblings, or friends from the ground.
Children used to learn from the elder who is usually taking care of them. At a very early age, the child tries to do precisely what their elder person does at home. From eating to everything, they learn from us. So we should think about what we are teaching them. And we can help them to make friends at the ground where they used to play. At first, we should know about the nature of our child. Some children wished to be alone.
On the other hand, you can’t leave some children alone. A child’s feelings can change within a moment, and you can find some of them are overly dramatic. Some of them are just happy with one best friend. Our most uncomplicated activity can have a significant impact on children’s life. So before helping them out to make friends in the Playground, we should talk to them gently. We should try to make ourselves as their best friend. Besides, we should try to make them social with the outer world. Another most important thing is we should teach them to share their toys with another child. Whenever we are going to treat our child, we should think about our childhood, ‘how we used to react, how our parents controlled our crying nature and how they taught us to be social.’ We should allow them to do something by standing beside them. Being rude to them can’t be a solution. So, it is most essential to be their best friend before helping them out because otherwise, they will not follow or listen to us.
Whenever it’s come to the term ‘FRIEND,’ our heart becomes full of joy. Whenever we became stressed, a friend can help us overcome the situation. So, everyone needs a friend, at least in their life. From the very beginning of the experience, we are being surrounded by friends. So, we should help out our children with making friends. Whenever we went with them to the Playground, we used to leave them alone with the Playground’s equipment and sitting beside we used to observe them. When we were watching them, we should notice by which thing or whom they are being attracted. Because their attraction towards someone means they are interested in them to play with. By seeing such activity, we can also notice the opposite child. We can notice that if they are also affected or not.
Throughout the observation, we should also notice if both are approaching one another or approaching the fixed playing equipment. Knowing their interest, we can help out to talk with one another and let them play with one another. As we used to watch their playing with the equipment, both can do noisy behavior or something like this. We should not discourage this activity caused by laughing or making noise; they are becoming closer. Besides, we should stop taunting over them during their indoor play also. If your child felt lonely among a bunch of children, then surely he/she was being bullied by another child. So he/she can come to you and ask for your help. In such times, it’s important to foster creativity in children, and places like St Ives preschool provide a nurturing environment for this. Those other children will make your child in their group for sure. Other’s creations are always attracting children. If one child is finding complications to play with a random child, parents should talk with other known parents and make their playing time similar so that they can play with each other every day and know each other better.
Another thing that can be happened like your child can be scared of another child, so you must visit Playground daily and support your child. By cheering them up, they can be enriched with courage and can make friends. Parents should avoid comparing their children with their siblings, cousins, or any other guy. Every child is born with their qualities. We should try to grow relationship skills and social awareness among them through our activities. In Playground, a child naturally feels intimate with other children except for some individual cases. But we should teach them to choose the best one among them so that their whole life can be the happiest with the same personality.
Only making friends is easier than keeping that friendship. We should teach our child loyalty, sacrifice mentality, sincerity, honesty, modesty, and all other qualities to be a good human being. Then another child will be attracted by our child for sure. It is always better to be a good human being than to be only an educated person. Sometimes because of silly misunderstandings, friendship became broken. We should help them out to protect their friendship. Every relationship is valuable to live happily. So as social beings, we should teach our children to have a good understanding of their friends.
To conclude, we can say that the Playground can play a vital role in making friendship among children. So, the parents must make time to take their child to the Playground so that they can socialize themselves and can make friends on the ground.
