Girls play outside in nature less than boys do, even at the
age of two, according to the first national survey of play among
preschool-age children in Britain. While researchers expect to see
older children socialised to particular gender roles, they were
shocked to see similar patterns of behaviour starting to emerge at
such a young age. They fear it could have long-term implications
for girls’ health, as girls are less physically active as they get
older and are more likely than boys to have difficulties with their
mental health.
The study also found that preschool-age children from a
minority ethnic background play less outdoors than their white
counterparts, and children in urban areas play less outdoors than
those in rural areas. “The results highlight inequalities in play
even in the youngest age group, which may exacerbate existing
inequalities in health,” the report concluded.
The research surveyed more than 1,100 parents and carers
of children aged two, three and four. They found that preschool
children spent approximately four hours a day at play, of which
one hour and 45 minutes was spent playing outdoors, mainly in
back gardens at home. Away from home, children played in
playgrounds and green spaces, with the most adventurous play
usually associated with indoor play centres.
“The popularity of these play centers is growing,” the
report said. “This may be driven by indoor play centres providing
adventurous play experiences that overcome some of the barriers
to outdoor adventurous play such as traffic, weather and safety
concerns.”
