"For more than 50 years now, we in the United States have been gradually
reducing children's opportunities to play, and the same is true in many other
countries. In his book
Children at Play: An American History (2007), Howard
Chudacoff refers to the first half of the 20th century as the 'golden age' of
children's free play."
