What is Entertainment?
The word “entertainment” can refer to the act of entertaining, as well as to something affording pleasure, diversion, or amusement. It can include anything from a circus performance to a rock concert. The story of Scheherazade, for example, has been told as an opera, a film, and in innovative video games. The word is also used as a marketing tool to attract customers to businesses.
Whether through art, sports, or games, entertainment provides an outlet for stress and helps people feel more confident about themselves. It can also help improve communication skills and provide a way to bond with others. For children, it can teach them to work together (through group activities like team sports or playing with dolls), and develop their motor skills through music or dance.
