Best Pediatrician in Ghaziabad. How can I spend time in playing with my child? As adults , we often think that play is for children and it is silly or unnecessary for us to engage in it. However playing with our child can be an excellent way of building a relationship with the child finding out his her thoughts and concerns and teaching the child the importance of Recreation. While playing with children, give them the freedom to choose what they want to play and how they want to play. Play at the level of the children, that is sit down where they are -sitting, make I contact , and copying their actions. Giving too many instructions or always using play to ask questions to test their knowledge can put off the children. Insted you can describe or comment on the child actions. For example , if the child is arranging some cars you can say-" oh_ you are making a car park" or if the child has drawn something you can say oh you have done yellow flower.
