[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- agree with all the comments about keeping a balance and kids cant not be doing anything all summer for 10-12 weeks. Do you feel the kids in the 80’s or prescreen times were more creative? With my boys 13 and 11, they are not addicted to screens as such but its the first thing they can think of when they are bored. Its too hot to play outside these days, maybe 50 years ago it was cooler? [/quote] I know I tolerated 90 degree heat a lot easier than I do as an adult. We had a house with no air conditioning oth three floors and the top bedrooms were the hottest. My college dorm had no AC, my first few apartments had no AC. No AC in my cheap car in the 90s. We had day camps outside with arts and crafts and sports. We were outside a lot back then. [/quote]
