How sad it is that recess is being cut. This is so important for the child, not only to enjoy the outdoors but also to maintain some healthy balance in their school life. The school I host my school age program in has two recesses per day for the the children. One in the morning and one after lunch. This gives the children to opportunity to have some "down time" from strict academic curriculum.
