Who introduced 'Street Play' sessions to her Bristol street?

Alice Ferguson, Director - Playing Out

''Our children were not getting outside enough, they were not physically active enough, and we saw that we had this great space immediately outside their front doors, but they couldn't use it. ''

More than forty local authorities across the UK are now supporting the ‘Street Play’ scheme she championed, and ‘Street Play’ seems to have an appeal that crosses national boundaries.

在加拿大多伦多的一条街道上，孩子们在做着他们最擅长的事情—一起开开心心地玩耍。他们能在马路上玩耍的原因是在这里每周都会有一次持续四个小时的禁车时段。这条街道也正是七条刚完成为期六个月的禁车试点计划之中的一条街道。

“这一切都是为了让孩子们能像从前那样出门玩耍。在街上玩耍是我童年中自然而然的一部分，而如今，这样重要的一段童年经历已经消失不见了。”

这种通常被称作“上街玩耍”的概念在世界各地逐渐被人们接受并越来越受欢迎。这项发起于加拿大的倡议是从英国的大街小巷中汲取灵感，比如这条位于布里斯托市的街道。每到周二，孩子们就可以在这里玩耍两个小时。

对该倡议做过研究的科学家们认为，此举还有益于儿童的健康。
