Sure, parental intervention is needed for some basic playground rules: don&#8217;t throw sand, take turns and no pushing. But I love watching kids enter a world of their own through play that isn&#8217;t micro-managed by the parents.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_296433\" style=\"width: 479px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-296433\" class=\"wp-image-296433 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/files\/2019\/06\/May-24_09-Levi-@-park-b-1.jpg\" alt=\"Playground Rules (Family Fun Calgary)\" width=\"469\" height=\"704\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/files\/2019\/06\/May-24_09-Levi-@-park-b-1.jpg 469w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/files\/2019\/06\/May-24_09-Levi-@-park-b-1-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-296433\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Let them strut their stuff at the playground<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>2.

Maybe she should pay more attention to her kids. But maybe she was up at 0&#8217;dark thirty with a child who wanted to know what red sounds like or how many dog years old he is and she&#8217;s been reading stories, wiping noses, and stacking blocks all day; this might be the first time she&#8217;s had 2 minutes to herself.

Firstly, this doesn&#8217;t facilitate my relaxation time at the playground. But more significantly, this robs my child of the chance to build her skill and confidence, discovering what her little body can accomplish. (Obviously, if a child&#8217;s in danger, that&#8217;s different.)

She loves to travel, write stories, and take pictures, especially when she can persuade her teenagers to come and play. Charity lives in Calgary with her husband and 3 kids, who sometimes decide they\u2019re too old for Mom\u2019s schemes and plans, but can usually be convinced to join the fun. When she\u2019s not writing for Family Fun, Charity can be found at the public library, figure skating at the local rink, or playing with her piano.","sameAs":["familyfuncanada"],"url":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/author\/charityquick\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/91"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=296406"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/296406\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/296437"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=296406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=296406"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/calgary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=296406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
