Screen Free Week May 4-10--
Spring Fair at Acorn
Hill May 9th!
HI
parents,
May 4-10 is Screen Free week, and I invite you to go screen free for
the week with me! What that means is limiting screen time to
necessary work activities, but no entertainment/social media screens.
I have also had parents in my classes devise plans like only checking phone for
texts once every (?) hours, having a (paper)pad and pen handy to jot down
what they want to 'Google' and setting aside an hour in the evening
for that. The goal is to bring awareness to our use of screens--what
is healthy for us and our relationships.

As Kim John Payne says:To
be clear, I am not anti-screen, but I am passionately pro human
relationships and family connections.
pro human, not anti screen
pro human, not anti screen
It
just so happens that May 9th
is Spring Fair at Acorn Hill. A lovely screen free event!
Come
join us!
