I won't buck a trend SPORTS are clearly better for children as it promotes physical health, teaches how to play as a part of a team (this is very important as in life we are all part of teams - in work and social settings), it strengthens social skills, teaches how to loose graciously(even Tiger Woods doesn't win all the time) or sportsmanship. With a healthy body the mind can work more efficiently. Video games teach a little hand - eye coordination but it is notoriously bad for the eyes and sitting still for prolonged periods of time is bad for circulation ( not to mention posture have you seen the way children sit while playing video games?).

Sports, hands down. Sports are real life experiences.....Video games are not. They're more like make believe, fantasy...

sports, because they are having interaction with others,and also because it is very important to keep a child active, with as much T V kids wathch these days.Yes the video game is working thier minds, but you also need a child moving around and not eatting and plaing a hand held game.

For me, Sport is better than video games because in sports, a person can loose calories. It is also better to improve your child's agility, strength, endurance, speed and cardio-vascular health.

Sports. They are outside, interacting with other people, not characters in a game.

Sports--I am sick of hearing of sickly, obese children waisting there lives in front of the screen. Get outside and enjoy the world.
