[quote=Anonymous]PP Fairfax County, our lives did NOT revolve around food. Soccer "snacks" were oranges. Family road trips/vacations/family reunions always involved a park with a playground. And, we played! Up and down the tall, metal sliding boards, teeter totters, swings, monkey bars, pull up bars. Playgrounds today are more passive. Another observation; Field Day in the 1970s was competitive. We got medals and actually competed in hurdles, 50 yard dash, relay race. Now, FD is face painting and snow cones. What happened to the Presidential Fitness Award? That was another very popular, very competitive, active "unit" in ES and middle school. Running the 600, flex arm hang, sit ups, etc. [/quote]
