A group of four boys are playing in a sandbox playground area. They appear to be wrestling with each other. One tackles another as if playing football. As the camera zooms in for a close-up view of two of the boys, they are smiling and seem to be enjoying themselves. This episode fits several aspects of rough-and-tumble play in middle childhood: (1) the boys are approximately 10- to 12-years-old; (2) they are male; (3) their type of play is physical and aggressive, but (4) as the textbook notes, it is done in a friendly and nonthreatening way.
