Irina Musuc, wrote about Outdoor activities in different countries<\/em><\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0the Multicultural Kids Blogs<\/a>. \u00a0She notes that the outdoor activities pursued in different countries “depends on climate, geographical zone, landscape, habits, traditions and even values people have in a particular country.” \u00a0To make her point, she contacted parents in ten\u00a0countries and asked them to share their favorite outdoor activities. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If there is an ocean nearby, people love to go there and play on the beaches. \u00a0If there is no ocean people love their nearby lakes. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In highly developed countries like the Netherlands and Australia, kids are offered lots of playgrounds and a wide array of training in things like swimming. \u00a0In lesser developed countries, kids enjoy a lot of traditional outdoor games.<\/span><\/p>\n In urban China, play tends to be quite structured and older kids are so intensely in the education system that they have little time for outdoor play.<\/p>\n I think Ms Musuc makes her point. While there are a few common denominators like oceans and lakes, people around the world seem to develop a love for the outdoors in many ways.<\/p>\n
