It is raining here in Connecticut today, and my son has been sitting in front of the TV. I've offered to take him places, but most things he wants to do is outside. I told him that if for some reason the tv goes off the air, we are going out...PERIOD. He laughed at this, and I thought to myself the only way this will happen is if there is a power failure. But at least it was a good thought.
At 3pm EST, Nickelodeon came on the air with "World Wide Day of Play". They are off the air for 3 hours from noon to 3pm pacific time (black out). It is sad to think that television stations need to tell children to go out and play. Whatever happened to going out at dawn, riding bikes, playing with friends, and using your imagination?
Not only have I turned off the tv, I have unplugged it too.. Let's help save the Earth and go green.. for a little while anyway. I think more stations should do this, and they should make it an annual event.
I am now heading out and looking for a new bike for my son.. I think we will have a good time doing this.
