Screen Free Week

We did screen free week a few weeks ago and I thought it would be a lot harder, because my fall back to entertain the kids is to just put on a show when I want a little peace. And the kids are always asking to watch TV. We just filled our time with fun things to do together. We went to the splash park, took Buster to the dog park, got messy with cornstarch goop, stacked with sugar cubes, and visited a duck pond to feed the ducks. Plus, spent time at the library, read books and did lots coloring. It was a very enjoyable week without the noise of TV. And the kids didn't bug me to turn it on the whole time.
