Q. Young people do not spend their holiday or weekend doing outdoor activities like hiking and climbing in natural environment. Why? What can be done to encourage them to go outside?

In the modern era, the habit of children to spend their free time indoors rather than outdoors is increasingly manifested. Outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing and cycling are not their first option. In this essay, we will discuss why this situation occurs and what can be done to change it.

In a rapidly changing world, most children are increasingly overwhelmed with hectic schedules as they have many extracurricular activities, not only school duties, but also language lessons, swimming lessons and others. For example, a young person who is completely overloaded with weekdays will not have the strength to go in for outdoor sports on weekends, in other words, he will want to relax. Also, most parents don't encourage free time so they can appreciate sports. For these reasons, the practice of outdoor exercises is not carried out with high frequency.

Parents should promote a healthy lifestyle by balancing school and home to inspire their children in the importance of sports. In addition, schools and health organizations can run campaigns to support outdoor activities. For example, some international studies show that when schools have a variety of activities, such as a picnic in nature, students show much more creativity and learning abilities. Moreover, this contact with nature can improve not only the physical health of people, but also the mental one.

To conclude, young people need to be responsible with serious responsibilities, but they also need to spend their free time with their family and friends in order to maintain a perfect balance. This essay discussed why they spend a lot of time indoors rather than outdoors and discussed what can be done to remedy this situation.
