Take a di­gi­tal break and go wild!

Here is the thing, when we are bored we tend to go on­line. There is so much to see on our tech­ni­cal de­vices. They never sleep!! Lucki­ly, there are a lot of al­ter­na­ti­ves to screen time. Kids, there are ple­nty of things to do other than sit­ting in front of your de­vice.

Try this:

- get back to na­tu­re – ex­plo­re our gar­den, sit under a tree, lis­ten to sounds out­si­de, meet fri­ends for a pic­nic, throw rocks into the stream, build a tree­house, make rock art or just go for a walk

- get the games out - enjoy a board game af­ter­noon with your fri­ends or fa­mi­ly, crea­te ridd­les and chal­len­ge your fri­ends, come up with new board game ideas

- start coo­king – make a meal plan with your fa­mi­ly, bake toge­ther, learn how to make so­me­thing new like pasta or bread, make ho­me­ma­de pizza, try to make ice cream yours­elf

- be ac­ti­ve – go swim­ming, cy­cling, in­door clim­bing, wal­king, join a local sports club, dance in front of the mir­ror, try smi­ling :-))

- get crea­ti­ve – write, draw, make and crea­te. Use ever­y­thing you can think of to crea­te so­me­thing new. Use plastic to make art. Use card­board to print pat­terns. Use old clo­thes to sew new things. Go wild!
