While playing, a child develops, acquires skills and develops (creates) social relation ships. The nature defined playing asa learning ool for children. Itis impossible to acquire all the necessary skills in any other way before the beginning of schooling, ‘The way the child plays and the person he/she plays with changes through his/her development: + Exploration and playing are a strong driving force behind cognitive development. Through playing games, children learn about objects, shapes, textures and space. In this way, they ‘manipulate identity, order, connect, measure. Through Constructing (building) and deconstructing (breaking), they learn bout object attributes and acquire the concepts of weight, height, volume and texture = Playing games prepares children for Ife at their own pace. In ‘games, they are active participants of the surrounding world and not ony passive receivers. In family and school, they complete different duties and tasks in a previously defined order, but in the world of games, they can deconstruct reality nto the parts they. find acceptable and actively change it. - Playing games creates an opportunity to practice the role of being an adult. The children often play schoo}, family, hospital, supermarket and try outthe role of being parents, teachers, salespeople and doctors In games, they learn to take turns in playing activities with their partners and continue the roles of others “Playing helps children to build their sense of identity. Through playing games, they can see themselves in a different light and from other perspectives, = Playing games cfeates reality a well imagination. tn them, the children can face thelr worries and fears ina safe way ~ witches, monsters, ions, thieves, ghosts..~ and through these episodes of imaginations, they can face them and win.

In cooperative games, a child's actions are coordinated in order to achieve a common goal Its Issue 2 December 2017 ‘worrying that today children enter the phase of cooperative playing later. The reason for this is that children increasingly ‘watch television, they are often infront of the computers and get their mobile phones from an earl childhood. In this way, the childten become passive and not active participants, They have increasingly ess brothers and sisters or they are only children. AS 2 result, they do nat learn how to share their toys and follow the ‘game rules, which isa precondition for further cooperation in an activity In schoo}, we notice how children reluctantly accept general rules of the game and everybody wants to impose their own ‘ones. Children need to abandon their world of games where they had the leading role.In school age, they are capable of develop- ing their cognitive and social skils They need to accept disappointment and defeat The parents often do not understand that their child carries over the way they cope up with frustration into the real world. The role, the child takes in social games, corresponds to the role he vill have ina social group, Interference of parents in the child's s0cial games with their peers isnot good because this nterfer- tence hinders the chiles socal development. However, what ‘every parent can and has an obligation to dois to spent sufficient amount of time playing with ther child while he/she is young. As the child grows, every parent should leave some time {to hang out with their child where he/she will build trust. This time should be separated from the time where he/she willdeal with problems in learning, cleaning, etc. parent should learn how fo set boundaries for children, because the child wants and feels safer within them, Enjoy your children and play with them because they grow too fast.
