Some people believe that children's leisure time activities must be educational otherwise they are waste of their time.

It is considered that idle

time

of

children

should be used for acquiring new skills which help them in later life. I completely agree with

this

statement, because it assists to enhance both mental and physical ability. To commence with, one of the vital reasons for doing educational activities is that it polishes

children

's ability to think critically and analytically. In its turn,

this

past

time

will be handy for their future career prospects and progressions. Take different

games

as an example, they are designed by expert psychologists and it aimed at making kids' free

time

enjoyable. Due to its design and colour, nowadays

children

are becoming slaves to

such

interactive

games

.

However

, not all

games

are useful for

children

's growth.

As a result

,

games

deprive their leisure

time

.

In addition

, as they became older, they face different troubles in gaining new knowledge and survival skills compared to their peers.

Therefore

, the parents should shoulder the responsibility of organising their offspring's

time

more fulfilling.

Moreover

,

children

should be occupied with different pieces of training which have educational content.

For example

, there are various puzzles

such

as sudoku and jigsaw which can expand

children

's numeracy and ability to tackle problems.

Hence

, a lot of e-books are available on the internet which can enhance youngsters' mature skills.

Although

such

academic activities cause

children

to be deprived of their childhood, they prevent various dangers on the internet and ensure their intellectual development. To sum up, in order to bring up intellectual and smart

children

, parents always ought to control their

children

, providing a healthy atmosphere.
