Do you agree or disagree with the following statement Children rely too much on the technology like computers smart phones video games for fun and entertainment Playing simpler toys or playing outside with friends would be better for children s developmen

Nowadays, education has become the top concern of modern citizens, recently, there is a heated debate on whether children should play with toys or use the computer. Some people claim that it does not matter if they use a lot of technology, as for me, I believe that kids should play with simple toys or go outside instead of staying at home playing video games.

Firstly, playing with some toys can increase their attention span. To be specific, those toys are designed very simple and handy, kids can easily know how to control them instead of being taught by adults, they are more confident when playing it. Also, some toys like puzzles, building blocks, and balls are likely intriguing to their interests and they are willing to focus on the game. Take my sister Lucy for example, when she was 6 years old, her parents gave her a puzzle as a birthday present. Ever since, she was obsessed with it, because she needed to find every piece on her own, and this gave her fulfillment once she completed the whole picture. Lucy always spent hours even a day playing it, and this greatly increased her attention span, leading to better academic performance in the further. So when she went to high school, Lucy could focus on a problem for a very long time until she solved it. Thus, I am convinced that children should play with some toys.

Furthermore, young pupils can make a variety of new friends by playing outside. To be exact, in this way, kids have the chance to know how to communicate with others. Some kids are usually immature to understand that they are not the center of the world. Therefore, playing outside with their friend and involving in team activities like playing football and finishing something together will give them the experience such as paying attention to other kids, talking with them face-to-face, and making compromises to achieve any common goal. On the contrary, if they just stay at home, playing video games, what they are facing is only a screen and well-designed characters. In this way, kids will live in a virtual world, and it makes them difficult to understand the real reactions and interactions in reality. In a word, I state that kids need to play outside.

In conclusion, from what has been discussed above, I still maintain that children should play with simpler toys or play outside with friends.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
