Concept of Recreation
1
What I Need to Know

At the end of this lesson, you should be able to:

1. Discuss the nature and background or recreation;
2. Identify the different recreational activities.

What’s New

Activity 1: LET’S DANCE

Stretch. Stretch. Stretch. I know that you are already bored at home. But
hey, break the ice by dancing to the music of your choice. You want Budots or Tik-
Tok? Let all the family members take turn in dancing your hearts away. With this
activity, you will not only forget the boredom you experienced the whole long
vacation but unknowingly, you have stretched your muscles. It’s a good bonding
with the whole family, too!

What Is It?

It’s been months that you are staying at home. It was a longer vacation that
you experienced because of the threat of the COVID-19. You may be bored but
don’t worry. You can turn the things around you into something that gives you self-
gratification. There are many recreational activities you can do to relax and to enjoy.
Any activity that takes place during your free time is referred to as recreation.
It does not follow standard rules; it can be done anywhere; and most of all, it gives
enjoyment and self-satisfaction. Recreation is derived from the Latin word,
“recreare” which means to be refreshed (mapasigla), to relax or to enjoy.
Participation in recreational activities varies from one person to another depending
on one’s intention, reason or belief.
How do you spend your free time? Recreation is categorized into active
recreation and passive recreation. Active recreational activities include jogging,
swimming, hiking, biking or gardening while passive recreational activities include
watching television, listening to music or reading books. Moreover, active
recreational activities can be done indoor or outdoor. Where do you prefer to do

1
recreational activities? It depends on you. Whether indoor or outdoor, what matters
most is its holistic impact on you as a person.
Having in touch with nature can give so much relaxation. Walking on green
grass by the woods or just watching birds early in the morning while holding hands
with your loved ones (family) is a unique bonding time away from the day-to-day
routine. Others love to do these activities in water while those adventurers would
prefer more on air. Our country has many places to explore and to start many
recreational activities, whether on land, in air or on water. In your community, what
activities can you offer? Had you tried it before?

What’s In
How was your aquatic activity at home? Did you just enjoy a bucket of water
in taking a bath or you just had a very relaxing time while singing under the shower?
Perhaps, you made your own version of a bathtub or a swimming pool where you
completely submerged your body to be refreshed from the very hot days during your
vacation. Only if you were allowed to go out on hiking or jogging and feel the cold

 What Is It?

Are you planning a walk after the community quarantine? How about a longer
walk with your loved ones (family and friends)? Have you explored the mountains,
hills, caves, forests or hidden falls in/near your community? If your answer is no,
then think again. Maybe you are still a stranger in your own place.
Consider some outdoor recreational activities that bring you closer to nature.
It is very relaxing to hear the sound of singing birds and bubbling brooks; very
soothing when you feel the breath of fresh air on your face and smell the divine
fragrance of flowers. A line in an energy beverage commercial says, “Great things
start from small beginning.” So, start your recreational activities with hiking and/or
jogging even within your compound this season.
To fully understand, the following terms related to mountaineering are defined
below.

Recreational Activity Definition

It is an outdoor activity where there are clear paths to
follow. Paths are usually beautifully charted with signs
Hiking so that hikers won’t get lost along the trails. Natural
hiking trails serve as guides of the hikers to their
destinations. It is usually shorter than trekking.
This outdoor activity is a longer journey on foot
compared to hiking. The activity is quite challenging,
allowing the trekkers to pass through an uncharted
Trekking paths. Sometimes, this will take within a few days or
weeks. Usually, undeveloped places are explored in
trekking where there is a close-up view of the wonders of
nature.
Camping is an enjoyable outdoor activity that allows you
to experience simple adventures outside your homes. It
allows a lot of moving since it involves activities like
Camping carrying backpacks, hiking and most of all pitching of
tents. This activity lets you experience interaction and
bonding with others while engaging in different
educational activities.
It is an outdoor activity that requires you to follow a
specific sequence of pre-set course with the help of
navigating devices, specifically maps and compass to go
Orienteering
through an unfamiliar terrain. Aside from physical, this
activity requires mental toughness to be able to reach the
expected destination.

You can always make your own version of these recreational activities at
home. Just be creative and innovative. Even a simple household chore can be
converted into something that will give you and your loved ones an avenue to enjoy,
relax and bond with one another during quarantine period.

What I Can Do?

1. In times of crisis, food is our most essential basic need. Considering the many
challenges, to include finances, faced by your breadwinners, you can always
help them bring nutritious food on the table to eat. How? Cultivate your vacant
lot into a vegetable garden. If you are living in an urban community, make an
innovation by cultivating an urban garden using recyclable materials as your
pots/plots. In your little ways, you can bring joy to their hearts and at the same
time, keep yourself fit through this physical activity.
