Screen Free Week

 This week is screen-free week, a time to un-plug and re-connect with the people in your life.

Look UP!

Look OUT!  

Take as much time as you possibly can this week to UNPLUG from electronic devices and PLUG into wonder, play, experiences, and re-connect with the PEOPLE that you love.

Screen-free week activities to do with kids
Here at The Educators’ Spin On It, we believe in the power of parenting with purpose and have pledged to turn off our screens for the week and make even more meaningful connections with our children, spouses, friends, and community members. Because of this, no new posts will be added to the blog during this time.  We will be reading, gardening, getting caught up with the mending, playing board games, going on field trips, and just having fun with our kids!
We would love to have you join us in this 7 day challenge.
Admittedly, this 7 day challenge may be difficult for some families.  We urge you to consider modifying the challenge to meet your family needs; it can be “just when the kids are awake,” or it can even be just TV vs all screens, or it can be just for 3 days.

Here are just a few of the screen-free activities that you could do with your family!

Take a texture walk
Set up science experiments
Indoor learning activities
Outdoor learning activities
Mommy and Me heart healthy activity stations
Go on an outdoor adventure: Fossil Hunting

Get crafty with shells
Garden with your kids
Make connections with other professionals in your field

Have a Teddy Bear Chalk Challenge
