Americans by and large
tend to be pretty nostalgic about
recess, but a lot has changed since we were kids. When I was
growing up in Washington, D.C., I had the chance to play outside, unsupervised, every day after school,
WoW Gold online during weekends and all summer long. The
older kids taught the younger kids a host of rules--from how to pick teams to how to quickly end disputes--
and as the younger kids became the older kids, we
passed
on this culture of play to the generation behind us.
