With the ease of gaming on smartphones and tablets nowadays, virtual experiences are replacing physical experiences for a new generation of kids. More and more children are prone to spend more time on smart devices instead of playing outside and having real interaction with other children. It is our responsibilities to give more care to our future generation and not let smart devices get hold of them.

The title is “>slide to play”, saying that the child nowadays is more prone to play a game on the tablet instead of playing on real slides in the playground.
