Children may be getting less accustomed to very active play time with the rise of sedentary activities like playing on their parent’s phone or a tablet or watching TV/playing video games. It’s easy for families to keep children indoors, where it is safe and they are easily monitored, than outside, where it is liable they will get hurt, or maybe abducted by strangers.
At centers, it might be the time constraints. If children are only there for the morning, it may be that structured time is in the morning and unstructured time is in the afternoon (or vice versa). It may be that teachers have a difficult time, even if they are within their ratios, to transition children properly or weather or teacher illness/absence may be a factor in disrupting plans that were made.
