answer to each of the questions from 21 to 27.

KITCHEN KNIVES AND OFFICE SKILLS

Companies are always looking for ways to make their employees happy and productive That is why they go tothe trouble and expense of sending them away on training courses Some courses have a direct connection to work,such as computer training, language skills and time management Other activities are said to help employeesdevelop so-called 'soft skills', a popular example is team-building Climbing, canoeing, treasure hunts and sailingare just a few of the ways on offer to get employees together out of the office to discover new things aboutthemselves and one another

Companies can now forget rope courses and golf outings The cooking class approach to corporate team-building

has caught on and cooking schools across the country are expanding to meet demand Last year, Hands On

Gourmet, a company in San Francisco, tripled the number of chefs it has on call to 32 Cooking by the Book,

acompany based in New York, did 178 team-building events last year, a 24% increase over the previous year 'This is a wonderful way to break the ice and get people familiar with each other while getting them to do something as basic as cooking,' said Stephen Gibbs, a co-owner of Hands On Gourmet, whose corporate team-buildingbusiness in the last year has increased to twenty events a month from an average of twelve 'Cooking events serve

as an equaliser,' Mr Gibbs said, 'where the hierarchies of the office do not always translate In the kitchen, it's notabout top-down structure,' he said 'Everyone is working on the same level.'

Bibby Gignilliat, the owner of Parties That Cook said the change of scenery makes people see their colleagues in

a different light 'It breaks down your stereotype of people in the office,' Ms Gignilliat said 'You might notespecially like someone you work with, but sud denly you're working on a recipe with them and you see they're areally good cook 'This is true of other team-bonding pursuits, of course And fortunatey most people are willing togive cooking a try, as the minimal level of competence in the kitchen is relatively low What's more, the kitchencan represent a microcosm of the working world, with a deadline, limited resources to work with and a requirementfor cooperation Ms Gignilliat said that unlike the corporate world, where co-workers might be collaborating on aproject for a year, in the cooking class' they can see results after an hour'

Some of the most gratifying results can come from a cooking event with people who barely know one another MsGignilliat said she started doing cuisine-centred team-building eight years ago, when 40 or so executives arrived inSan Francisco from Asia to negotiate a deal The local law firm they were working with setup a team-building classwith Ms Gignilliatat the home of one of the lawyers

Ms Gignilliat was sceptical at first 'I walked into the living room and they were stand ing in a circle, veryformally, and no one was talking ,' she recalled She tried to break the silence with a cheerful, 'OK! Who wants tocook!' No response

Once she managed to get the men to the kitchen and into aprons, she showed them how to make stuffed chickenand straw berry cheesecake 'By the end of the night, everyone was having fun,' she recalled Ms Gignilliat heardlater that her class had been the high light of the group's two-week stay in San Francisco 'That's when I knew I was

on to something ,' she said 'Food is a universal language and nothing brings people together better than creating ameal.'

IS JENNY COMING OUT TO PLAY?

Whatever happened to the familiar scenes from the past of children with grass-stained knees wrestling on the frontlawn, or chasing after grasshoppers and toads while their parents chatted amicably with the neighbours over thefence? This idyllic picture is fading fast as today s children are spending increasingly more time indoors in front of

a screen

Writer Richard Louv coined a name for this trend of humans losing touch with their environment as they plug in their technology He calls it “nature deficit disorder” in his 2005 book, Last Child in the Woods Louv introduces

the idea that the rise in behavioural problems and learning disabilities, particularly among boys aged 6 to 12, may

be directly linked to the fact that children spend so little time outdoors these days

According to Louv, kids who spend time outdoors are less likely to get sick, or become stressed or aggressive.They’re also more flexible, perform better in school, and are generally happier and healthier

Author and professor, Bryan Caplan, says the trend is partly due to parents’ desire to shelter their children: “One

of the hardest parts of parenthood is worrying that something terrible will happen to your child The news is full ofstories about parents who failed to shield their child from the dangers of the world - enough to make anyone sick.” But in desiring to keep kids safe, parents may be unwittingly putting them at risk for a great number of issues,from obesity and other health problems to learning and behavioral challenges

Various groups and individuals, such as the Trust for Public Land and Michelle Obama are working to entice kids

to spend more time outside and give them a taste of the old days Society has changed to such an extent that parentsfeel uncomfortable letting their children roam freely outdoors It is not only the appeal of computers and videogames that has driven children inside, but also anxiety over traffic, crime, and child predators However, with more

public awareness of the issue, it may not be too late to turn back the clock.
