development are scrutinised by many parents, in order to boost kids’ all aspects of skills. Some argued that attending activity is the best
way
compared to merely reading books. Personally, I completely disagree with
this
statement. As both are equally important in terms of mental and physical health.
To begin
with, delightful
activities
will always enhance youngsters’ brain development. Regardless of outdoor
activities
,
such
as all kinds of sports, and indoor
activities
, like handcrafts and board games.These are not only increasing
children
’s thinking but
also
their creativity. In Taiwan,
for instance
, art crafts and board games were added to the after-school curriculum for the sake of their cognitive development.
In addition
, while participating in those fun
activities
, pupils get the chance to interact with their peers, in that
way

therefore
,
children
’s interpersonal skills are booming.
On the other hand
, through reading
children
can gain their knowledge comprehensively. Communicating and problem solving are not taught in school;
therefore
, kids need to read extracurricular books to gain their knowledge. Another reason is that reading can calm youngsters’ minds. Compared to

problems is higher than the latter. My brother,
for example
, was raised to read more;
as a result
, he is able to deal with problems and express ideas better than me. In conclusion,
although
some favour one
way
more than the other. I would argue that either
way
should not be overlooked. Parents or caregivers need to assist young
children
to balance their learning orientation.
