Some days I think I am going to do it... the question is can I live without my Oprah? But I do get the value of limited TV time. Not sure if you know Dido but she and her brother grew up without TV (parents decision) and when asked what she did to entertain herself she said that she and her brother used to just come up with stories. I think I would love it if my kids did that instead of watching TV... I don't know... I am thinking about it.mrs.notouchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00839832913532091394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881889234584131192.post-8751518566510067492010-04-06T19:34:14.653-07:002010-04-06T19:34:14.653-07:00Ug I hate TV.

When my kids don't use the tv (we only watch videos) they are so much more creative and can entertain themselves. If we start off watching videos, I find they're stuck the rest of the day.kyndalehttp://earthycrunchy.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881889234584131192.post-2984311097082516192010-04-05T12:02:46.697-07:002010-04-05T12:02:46.697-07:00What an interesting experience for that kid.

But at home, we don't have one.".....<br />So, the kids made up their time to watch TV during their traveling time! Is that mean they are not as curious about the "vacation" time and rather watch TV at the hotel then? Mmm, I rather have them watch a little bit of TV at home then forget TV during traveling time. Ari did just that :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881889234584131192.post-12383833639014160622010-04-04T20:48:27.063-07:002010-04-04T20:48:27.063-07:00That guy and his son sound REALLY interesting, how...That guy and his son sound REALLY interesting, how cool that you got to meet them.
