Screen-free week is May 4-10, 2015
Screen-free week is just around the corner. What better time to reconnect with family, friends and nature. Families everywhere will be unplugging their screens (computers, televisions, smart phones, tablets, etc.) and rediscovering the joys of life beyond digital entertainment. Join this world wide movement. For great ideas on non-screen activities from the Campaign for Commercial Free Childhood, click on the links below.
