They say that there are things in life that you cannot stop doing, that they are “obligatory,” and one of them is being a father. Without a doubt, for me it was an incredible experience, a unique and indescribable feeling that pervades you inside and fills you with happiness. When you see your child in your arms and look at him in a fragment of time, when it seems that everything has stopped like a movie, and you think from the second, even long before his birth, that you would give everything for this little person, in order to making her happy and being happy by her side … these are unique and indelible moments for any parent. Without a doubt, this is an atypical father’s day, on the one hand, many parents will be able to spend the whole day at home with their children, and on the other hand, a large number of parents will work to take care of us and provide social security. prevail. Hence the applause to all of them and equally to the mothers and to all the people who make these difficult moments more bearable.

What a better way to spend time with our kids than to play. We all know that play is essential in children’s lives, they need to be active, experiencing and stimulating with different characteristics in order to fully develop their abilities. Children learn by playing. Through various games, the child develops his sensory abilities, his creativity, his imagination, communication skills, affective abilities, decision-making, etc. But, like adults, not all children need the same stimuli.

Today our children live surrounded by incentives. Incentives of all kinds, but above all technological. It is obvious that in modern society it is impossible to turn away from new technologies, the Internet, video games, etc. In fact, this would be a mistake. Spain’s internet connection data has recently been released and the numbers are devastating, 75% of Spain’s population connects to the internet every day.

It seems that with so much technology, it’s impossible for kids to get bored, or rather, they don’t know how to get bored, we don’t let them do it. They have so many and many things that sometimes it seems like they don’t even know what to play. If we go out for a drink with friends and their kids, it’s not uncommon to see the kids stay in the chair where they sat as soon as they arrived and play their favorite video games without flinching. If we forget the console, we ask the elderly for their mobile phones, tablet or … This situation can be repeated in the office of a doctor, dentist, etc. It is difficult to later, when you ask them to express their feelings or tell what is happening to them , they will make it easy. It seems that we over-stimulate children to certain skills, but we cut the most valuable that a child has: his imaginative thinking, his creativity, his spontaneity, these allies, which very often led to evenings filled with laughter Strong>, games, race to catch the thief …
