The Play It Book - Days of Games for Children (1928)

From the Introduction to THE PLAY-IT BOOK we have the following: "The boys and girls of today are just as keen for fun as were their fathers and mothers, and it is just as necessary for their development. As a matter of fact, it is more necessary because modern children are denied many of the natural means of experience that were open to their parents. Crowded living conditions and highly specialized work give less opportunity for using the big muscles of the body, but at the same time, modern conditions provide more leisure and closer contacts with other people."
