Look at the happy smiling faces of all children on the following pictures. Then compare these pictures with kids playing in cities, in artificial playgrounds and you can easily recognize children's most preferred playground - God's nature!
Repeated times I have been told that countries like Philippines are too dangerous for kids from Europe or the "first world". This below photo album about happy children, happy and smiling children playing safely and happily in wild nature shall be my answer to all doubts and critiques about life and safety in our world made by God.
The secret to children safety while playing in wild nature is that all those parents here allow their children from earliest age to go outdoor with their sisters and friends. Growing up in freedom, being told what to do and how to do is safely is far better way to parent children than to prohibit everything except the few things you finally allow your children to do ... under direct supervision of an "adult" guardian.
Children grow up faster and stronger if they are allowed to do whatever they are attracted and challenged to do on their own. The best way to educate children is to allow them all - but to teach them to do all safely and to explain them in clear words all potential dangers and how to avoid dangers by properly handle objects or situations.
Below you will see happy children of young age handling with bare hands toxic jellyfish. The same children also know how to handle a bunch of other local animals like snakes and insects.
The result of allowing them to do all - while at the same time teaching children how to do all safely or how to assess properly dangers in a particular situation will lead to more mature happy children ready to experiment on their own and to make decisions and to properly assess situations in life to avoid all accidents.
If everything is allowed, then nothing has to be done in secret or hidden. Hence all playing in nature takes place in public and thus more or less under some control and supervision of adults with more experience. Accidents often occur when things have to be done in secret. Hidden from adults or parents. In hiding the natural relaxation is gone, the flow and inspiration as well. Stress occurs in children because they have to hurry to make sure no adults see what they do and under such artificial and tense situations accidents occur. The fearful attracts the object of fear. Accidents occur to show the parents that it would have been better to explain their children how to do all safely by allowing children to practice under parental or adult's guidance and supervision the first few times. In God's creation everything is allowed and God always is available to all to guide, to advise, to show better or safer methods or to show well in time when things risk to get out of control. We on earth could be very same - positive examples in all we do to allow all our children as well as all our neighbor's children to do exactly what we do and do to it the way we do it.
My grand-father used to smoke cigars - I was some 4-5 years old and he never told me to stay away from cigars, contrary he offered me to try his cigars. Hoping I might puke he handed his cigar, I suck a few times and disliked the taste and smell. Hence I never had the need nor urge to smoke in hiding from my parents and finally I never was smoking. Only activities that are prohibited are of interest to children. If you allow all, then children can make up their own mind and happy children have their own mind and their own healthy judgment as well. Sometimes common sense in happy children is far better developed than common sense in unhappy adults.
Parents are working having fun their way. Smart parents know God is every where - hence smart parents know that children always are with God when playing in nature!

Children love to have fun - to have fun means to do something different each moment. Only nature can offer an infinite possibility of situations over time. Each day in nature is different from any previous day.
