. In my opinion, I believe that giving
children
extra curricular
Add a hyphen

will help in developing
children
’s character. On the one hand, some parents think that
children
should do extracurricular
activities
after school, and I agree.
In other words
, by giving
children
extra
activities
,
children
will acquire much knowledge as long as it is not academic.
For example
, studies in the US proved that students who attend extra
classes
learn much more than students who are studying academically because academic
classes
give them
stress
so they can not perform well.
Hence
, these extra
activities
are crucial in order to develop
children
’s
skills
more efficiently.
Furthermore
, attending extra
classes
will improve their character and their
skills
,
such
as

social

, numeracy, and literacy.
This
is because they are going to study new things that will not be studied in schools which are going to be incredibly useful during their journey of life.
On the other hand
, some people say that it will
stress
children
, in a way that they will not be able to study anything else at all. One reason is that
children
are already overloaded with their homework and tasks that ought to be done, so
children
will feel lost in thinking
what

to do in their time
instead
of studying.
For instance
, many schools in Japan refuse to give
children
extra
classes
because
children
have the right to enjoy their childhood but surprisingly they found out that
children
who do not have extra-curricular
activities
perform better in their academic studies.
Therefore
,
children
should not be given extra
activities
owing to the fact that they take their freedom and
stress
them at the same time.
To sum up
,
although
people may vary in their opinion, I think that extra-curricular
activities
help
children
gain knowledge and improve their
skills
.
