 novels. Apparently, it is significant for
children
 to do educational
activities
 in their leisure time though the drawback is

pressure
.
Children
 are likely to feel under
pressure
 if they do not take a rest after school.
That is
, the more educational
activities
children
 perform, the more likely they will be under
pressure
. In
schools
,
children
 learn plenty of academic subjects involving chemistry, math, English and geography. After school, especially in Asia,
parents
 usually ask their
children
 to go to cram
schools
 for much more knowledge of academic subjects. In that way,
children
 usually feel exhausted and under
pressure
 when they are in cram
schools
. What’s worse, it may cause mental problems for those
children
 if they disobey their
parents
 to not go to cram
schools
. In order to solve
such
 a complicated issue,
firstly
,
parents
 have to communicate with their
children
 why they would not like to do educational
activities
.
Secondly
,
parents
 can divide time into academics and recreation with their
children
 so that
children
 can not only concentrate on their education but
also
 relieve their academic
pressure
. In that way,
children
 can make a balance between academics and recreation. In conclusion, educational
activities
 actually help
children
 to strengthen their thoughts and skills in school.
However
, they may make
children
 feel exhausted and impact their mentality.
Parents
 need to find the reasons why their
children
 do not want to adopt educational
activities
 and establish academics and recreation time respectively if
children
 are under
pressure
.
