Waterbuy's Twelve Special Areas Provide Super vised Recreation for Tiny Tots, Youngsters s-l5O,
 900 Patronized Fairgrounds in l936

In commenting upon the proper en- vironment for young children, James J. Curtin, superintendent of parks. remarked There is little doubt that the playground plays big part in the development of a child. Char acter building which is, and should be the. main .objecteof any organiza- ti0n, plays an important part in the schedule. Leadership qualities are of the best and endow the child with sense of responsibility through the various phases of supervised play. In all parts of the country, supervised recreation is being reor- ganized by eduators and social ser- vice workers, as an important part in the lives of every boy and girl, in preparation for their formal education in the elementary schools" :"
 Once upon a time there was 9 space set aside in the public parks, or some other area in the city, which had set up on it a set of swings, a few see-saws, and possibly another piece or two of apparatus. This was known as a playground

plants in the various programs of fered by the park department for young and old alike throughout the fall and winter months. Rapid strid- es are being made in installing both the equipment and programs ideas of other parts of the country. Ap- proximately 150,0OO children used the play grounds last year in Wa terblry under competent supervis- ion. Over 55,000 patronized the swimming and wading pools. Both of these figures will be surpassed this coming season according to the park department plans aimed at providing every opportunity for the youngsters of the city to grow mentally and physically strong and to become better citizens.

being established in this section of the country, baby actually re. mained a baby for some six or seven years. Now, she said, practically all children in the city are in school by the time they have reached the age of six years and incitieS where there are established nursery day schools they start as young as four.
 It is appropriate to write about the work done for children in local kindergartens at this time for 1887 marks the tooth anniversary of the founding of the first Kindergarten by Fredrick Frobel in Germany. Since that date the kindergarten has been accepted as a necessary step in the education of a hild and here in Waterbury the work is carried out with diligence and by an excellent staff of teachers. @
 At the present time there are 8 kindergarten teachers in the city of Waterbury who are members of this active association. Meetings are held each month and new plans for de- veloping the initiative of the child are throughly discussed at these meetings.

Parents, or nurse-maids might bring the children to these grounds and let them run and play about as they pleased while the guardians retired to benches in the vicinity. That was a few years ago. ,i...e
 To day the situation has under gone radical changes. A visit to any of, W&terbury's 12 playgrounds, especially those in the public parks will prove this statement. Each and every playground is open during the summer months from July to Sep- tember from a. m. till 9 pm daily

except Sunday under supervision. The supervisors are young men and women of college age who have iin- dergone an intensive course in play ground work and program planning.
 That period of the day when the child may run about the play ground and direct his or her own activity holds but a very small por- ton of the days program, possibly an hour. It is called the Free Play period; and is nothing more than a lull in the otherwise busy day of activity arranged by the corps of |completent supervisors in attend ance. The playground system of Waterbury is keeping abreast with the trend of every modern large city system by having the child "learn as he plays" Instructors in special subjects such as arts and crafts, dramatics, dancing, hobby clubs na- ture study, and variety of others activities visit the playgrounds at least twice week to occupy good part of the child's time. These in Structors follow the line of least resistance, offering to the child just what he or she likes to do best. Lessons in health and safety as brought to the child in the class rooms during the school periods are now carried along to them in some shape or form on the playgroundS.
 The parents or nuresmaids who used to accompany the child to the grounds and then pass the time with @ book or magazine or probably a piece of sewing does not find time for that now. She is too interested in watching the child in a new form of play" Handcraft and hobby ex- hibits are highly interesting since they contain the work done by the child. There is the dramatic offer ing of musicale, the stunt contests, the doll parades, and other novel competitions.
 Waterbury is fortunate in having two fine out-of- door swimming pools and two wading pools which are onha par with any in New England. Every element of danger has been removed from water play for the youngsters in the shallow areas of the wading pool The swimming pools for the older boys and girls are welcome relief from the summer heat for those who are unfortunate. in having the ways or means of get ting away to the lakes and sea- shores. And each of the pools have supervisors in charge who are well versed in life guarding and first aid. The present number of facilities however, are not yet sufficient to take care of a city as large as Waterbury.
 And there are still plenty of sec tions of the city which have hot adequate play lots. The Community houses at Chase Park and Wash ington Park are becoming overtaxed ecause of the increase of partic-
