Some people say that parents should encourage their children to take part in organised group activities in their spare time. Others say that it is important for children to learn how to occupy themselves on their own. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Nowadays, there are many team
activities
in school, and many parents encourage their children
to take part in these. Some people believe this
trend is good for children
, while others think children
should stay alone and learn how to control their time
by themselves. In my opinion, both of them are important for children
’s development.
One key benefit for children
of doing team activities
in their leisure time
is that they can improve a lot of skills and learn to get along with their peers. For instance
, some schools usually organize a camping trip in the summer or winter vacation. During this
process, students need to learn how to erect tents and help other classmates when they meet problems. The other advantage of taking part in group activities
is good for mental and physical health. As a result
, children
will become more outgoing than other teenagers who are always alone.
On the other hand
, I also
see a variety of advantages for children
spending time
alone in their free time
is that they can do whatever they like and release their stress. Different kids always have different hobbies, some children
enjoy playing sports, but others prefer to do quiet activities
. If they can stay alone and do whatever they like in their free time
, and then
they not
need to bend the preferences of others in a group activity, they will feel more happy and free. Add a missing verb
do not
Also
, they will develop their time
management skills and independence by staying alone and occupying themselves on their own.
In conclusion, both spending time
in groups and spending time
alone are important because people live in society and need to learn how to deal with other people. However
, they also
need to learn how to manage their time
as this
will help them in their future careers.Submitted by whuan0719 on
