Seriously.
It ...Girl, you are stronger than me! <br /><br />Seriously. <br /><br />It is hard enough for me to do one day a week. Which is pathetic, really. <br /><br />I did grow up without a tv, however. Didn't have one until I was a teen. And I think I turned out fairly normal. ;-)Beki - TheRustedChainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15963688700633522730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1125719011804863199.post-29388183627344297212009-05-04T09:42:00.000-04:002009-05-04T09:42:00.000-04:00Oh my gosh, good luck!

I have to admit that it is as hard for me to go without the computer as it is for them. (I didn't make it...kind of hard when your work is on teh computer, but I didn't even let go of the fun stuff.) But we did some great things that week. (Several library trips. Roll making, cake decoratiang, more outside playing, new game playing.) I am planning to have unplugged days regularly come summer.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02399805400249672910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1125719011804863199.post-72509826263609939402009-05-03T16:19:00.000-04:002009-05-03T16:19:00.000-04:00Oh, I wasn't even thinking about the added benefit...Oh, I wasn't even thinking about the added benefit of not seeing all those ads!

But now I see how much time we spend together as a family & all the creative play that happens.

We're not entirely unplugged, but we did pull our satellite and only rent movies from Netflix. <br /><br />It has cut way down on the wants for toys and snacks that the kids would always see when watching Nick or Disney. <br /><br />All in all I'm happy with the results. Good luck to you!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15525854482650486213noreply@blogger.com
