All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Playtime is important to children, and playing outdoors is really good for them. But today more and more children spend their free time indoors. They watch TV, play computer games, or play with various smart devices（智能设备）, etc.
An American father Mike Lanza doesn’t think it’s good for children to spend too much time at home. So he decided to turn his yard into a playground.
Now in the open playground, there is a zip line（飞索）and a large playhouse with a trampoline（蹦床）and a slide（滑梯）. His sons and other children from the neighbourhood like to have fun there.
Mike and his wife live in Menlo Park, California with their three boys, Marco, Nico and Leo. They began building their playground in 2020 after they moved into their house near a park. “To let our kids go outside and play on their own, we think it’s a good idea to turn our yard into a ‘playhouse’,” said Mike.
Unlike many other “helicopter parents”, Mike encourages his boys to take risks（冒险）when they play in the playground. They also welcome three to four children from the neighbourhood every day to play there. “Usually within about half an hour, every kid becomes excited and they play, run and laugh. It’s so wonderful for me to see that,” said Mike.
