Remember that post I did on forgetting about how you look and just acting like a kid again?
Well, it turns out that a global study done by IKEA has given us even more reason to revisit our childhood…
“Surprising results from the largest global study ever conducted on child development and play show that kids overwhelmingly prefer playing with their parents over watching TV and using the Internet. When asked, kids chose playing with friends (89%) and parents (73%) with TV a very poor substitute for social interaction at only 11% and Internet 14%.”
