Abstract:

The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between parental attitudes toward nature and their child's outdoor recreation and how these attitudes related to their reports of their child's health problems. The sample for this study consisted of parents of 6- to 13-year-old children from the United States, who accessed the survey from an informational website for gardeners between Mar. and Aug. 2009. Surveys were collected until 142 completed questionnaires were received. The online survey included questions about parents' attitude toward nature, parents' attitudes toward the

When in public, faith-based mandates require practising Sikh men to wear a turban which may not be covered by hats or caps. This makes it impossible for practising Sikhs to wear helmets and other protective headwear, mandatory in many countries and facilities for engagement in recreational pursuits (e.g., skiing) and on adventure outdoor recreation camps mandatorily run for school groups. The result is often social exclusion and ostracisation in the case of school children.

Abstract:

Idag saknar förskolor i både större och mindre städer i allt större utsträckning lämpliga utomhusmiljöer för sina dagliga utomhusaktiviteter. Artikeln visar hur relationen mellan förskolors sociala och rumsliga förutsättningar och stadsrummets krympande öppna ytor för barns lek, umgänge och rekreation blottlades och ställdes på sin spets under covid-19-pandemin. Med utgångspunkt i teorier om hur policy iscensätts och görs till handling i praktiken (Ball et al., 2011), mobilitetspraktiker (Nansen et al., 2015) och med en mobil etnografisk ansats (Cresswell, 2012) diskuterar vi hur två innerstad

Abstract:

Although they commonly are associated with recreation, summer camps for children can be seen as educational arenas that both supplement and challenge school education. Summer camps provide education in a broad sense of bildung. The article aims at describing what is experienced in summer camps and proposes various theoretical frames for these bildung processes. The main focus is on summer camps in Russia, and we interviewed Russian informants who participated in summer camps. The findings were that learning in the camps tends to be non-instrumental, allowing room for play and experimentation f

In response to this, a recreation centre created take-home play kits that contained loose parts with the aim of facilitating unstructured play. Between August 2021 and January 2022, ten parents participated in semi-structured interviews via telephone or videoconferencing platforms that captured their experiences of the take-home play kits.

Abstract Providing public space in urban areas is challenging due to limited land, mainly in densely populated neighborhoods. People, including children, carry out outdoor activities on the roads, which are dangerous and disturb the comfort of road users. Furthermore, the absence of public space hampers economic activity and reduces environmental quality. Pocket parks are considered a strategy to provide public space in dense urban areas, such as small-scale parks as recreation arenas or open spaces located on riverbanks, railway borders, and vacant buildings.

Public parks offer free and easy to access spaces for outdoor recreation, which is essential for children’s outdoor play and physical activity in low-income communities. Because parks and playgrounds contribute to children’s physical, social, and emotional development, it is critical to understand what makes them attractive and welcoming for families with young children. Parents can be a key determinant to children visiting parks, with their preferences influencing whether or not families visit parks in their neighborhoods.
