Real rounded children need recess to learn how to socialize, problem solve and just be kids!

I support recess for all children in school! Surely we can find 20 minutes/day to allow children to grow and learn to their maximum potential.

Recess consists of physical exercise and play and socializing. These skills are all crucial for child development.

Children need that social time and I believe there is so much pressure and stress for young students.

Yes - children should have a recess - we had it when I was growing up and it did not hurt me or my studies in any wayt.

As a parent and early childhood educator, I know the importance of play and its direct impact on learning. Engagement and motivation can occur without a clear mind and oxygen flowing. Recess is crucial to all students.
