What is the appropriate time for a child to start studying?

Some people think that children should begin their formal education at a very early age and should spend most of their time on school studies. Others believe that young children should spend most of their time playing. Which view do you agree with? Why?

Education and co-curricular activities are essential for a child to live and prosper in life. It is the duty of the parents and teachers to understand the importance of education and sports. They should provide assistance and guidelines to the children. To live a well balanced life, both are important. In our society, we see two different schools of thought about children personality grooming.  Some of people think that children should begin their formal education at a very early age. Other people think that children should spend most of their time playing. So perceptions about both these views are different.

Education is very important for everyone’s success in life. Education is the best investment for the people because well educated people have more opportunities to get a job which gives them satisfaction. Main purpose of education is to educate individuals within society, to prepare and qualify them for work in economy as well as to integrate people into society and teach those values and morals of society. Parents taking an active role in their child education produce a willingness in children to learn. Education and society provides a forum where teachers and scholars all over the world are able to evaluate problems in education and society from a balanced and comparative social and economic point of view. It is important to recognize that high quality education in life gives children the best start.

Advantages and Disadvantages of early Education:

Advantages:
There is a belief that early Education will help the child to succeed in future as childhood is one of the best stages of human life. It is also one of the fastest transforming points where humans learn lot of things. The ability of learning is great as compared to any other stages of life. The young children tend to learn a lot when compared to adults. A child who has to go through moral education has to meet new children in the school and make interactions with them. So there will be more social life than the home environment where child is used to the loved ones. This also helps child in developing good communication and social skills which are quite essential for surviving in society. The early education also saves the time as the studies will be completed before time. Talking about emotional reasons a child with formal education has the opportunity of sensing independent life.

Disadvantages:
If the young children’s start their early educations then there are also problems for them in future like they have no chance to live free and play. Imagine that a child instead of playing with his friends does his homework and feel exhausted and tired. So there must be exercise for them which will improve their health and will have a good impact on development of a body.
Playing a major contributor to the physical, mental and social development of children, and therefore, children who begin their education too early will most likely be physically weaker and socially useless. There thinking of compromise, share and take responsibility in play will be lost and these all are opportunities for them to gain skills.

Advantages and disadvantages of late Education:
Advantages:
 There are many benefits for the children’s in taking the education as they get the time to enjoy and play. These benefits are as you can place your child in child care and know they are safe and well cared for by people who have a qualification and share an understanding about what is important for your child. Your child will have the opportunity to develop skills by playing with others and taking part in activities that build on their abilities and interests. You will be supported in caring for your child. You will have increased opportunities to work, attend appointments or spare time activities or have time to yourself. When they are playing in the park with other kids, they are using and developing their bodies, which promotes healthy growth.
Disadvantages:
There are also some problems in late education. There is some effect on the young children as they do no move out of the home environment to social environment. There are fewer skills to live independently in a new environment and to face the problems. The ability of learning is less for the new individuals which creates a bad impact on education


Recommendations
 As there are benefits and losses for young children of both the taking education at early age and spending most of the time in playing, But in my opinion and I am agreed is the second one which is that the young children must spend most of their time in playing as because as every child has his or her childhood  this is one of the great experience for every children as a child learn from his friends ,parents and other relations. Playing helps them to improve their mental growth which makes their decisions better, Investigate things, make conclusions, which is very good for their future.
