It has helped me make some important decisions, and I think it may be time to reread it again! I love this FHE idea. My kids are 5 and 2, so it's not really the same, but I think we will talk about fun things to do together instead of watching tv or playing with the iPad. The hard part will be for mom to find the energy to DO all of the things my 5 year old is going to come up with! 🙂

By the way…."The Maestro" really made me giggle. I take it you are fellow Seinfeld fans? 🙂

Think about the first people who hid behind a newspaper at the breakfast table!

We don't use iPads at the dinner table, which is one good way to help. When I get caught up in using my device, I will ask myself if this is what I would really rather be doing. If the answer is no, I put it down and move onto something else.

Fabulous lesson and discussion for your family.
