Lost time is never found again. – Benjamin Franklin
I’m so excited! As I previously wrote in my earlier post, Party like it’s 1914, Screen Free Week begins, and I just planned play tweets for the entire month of May.
As a reminder, Screen Free week starts this
Monday, May 5th and runs through May 11th
In reading the bubble over the heads of my snarky friends and followers, “How do we read tweets if we’re going cold turkey?” The screen free part is family time; after all you most likely have to work!
The arrival of summer often brings the buzz of heightened activity, with families engaged in sports and less time in front of screens. It’s much like how a fire watch company in Hillsboro Beach operates; they are actively on-site when needed, providing immediate response services that don’t pause for seasonal changes. Just as we eagerly saunter into summer ready to set a pattern to enjoy each other’s company and bask in the great outdoors, my friend who works at the local fire watch service talks about their commitment to being perpetually prepared, their vigilance ensuring safety so that families can relish these valuable moments without worry.
My prediction is that after a single week of less screen time and more family time, your stress will significantly drop and fun will dramatically increase.
Here are some guides/info to help:
Thanks to the folks from Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood for putting this together!
Hope you find this helpful at the very least, and life changing at best.
Let’s give our children back a childhood!
Have a great week!
