Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Kenya, Mexico, Philippines, Japan, India, small-town U.S. Play showed variability across the cultures: games with rules were more prevalent in U.S., India, Japan, and the Philippines. Gender segregation was common across all cultures, boys reduced contact with mothers and roamed further from home. Children from all cultures showed expressions of play, and those who engaged in subsistence or child care activities, incorporated play in them when they could. This supports the universality of the need for play and the need for the United Nations to incorporate a declaration of the child's right to play into the Rights of the Child document.
