Holy moly, it’s May!<\/p>\n

This week marks\u00a0Screen-Free Week<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>a time when communities (and particularly their children) around the world unplug together and reconnect with the world around them. We did this last year and it was a great success. Though, I must admit, not much of a difference from the daily lives for our kids, who spend around two hours a week looking at screens (it helps that this has been part of our lifestyle from the start; we have never owned a television when we’ve had kids and computers are very easy to place out of sight). However, it’s harder for me, as all of my blogging and writing happens on a computer!<\/p>\n

I have vowed to spend significantly less time on my own screen this week (I’ll be in the garden!) but I’ve set up plenty of blog posts in advance. The posts I have for this week will primarily be suggestions of fun activities and books that are about connecting back to the world around us. It’s very important and I hope you’ll join us, if not going completely screen-free, then at least cutting back if you can!<\/p>\n

P.s. — Tomorrow night is Circus Night at the boys’ school… I think I finally feel ready! It’s going\u00a0to be awesome!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
