Synopsis:

In an era on information overload, parents are starting to see the value of keeping their children away from the television and the computer. But how do you fill that time? Recent studies show that too much time spent in front of the television can lead to attention deficit disorder in children. But most parents don't need science to tell them that there are better ways to entertain kids than to prop them in front of 'electronic babysitters'. Full of amazingly simple, easy-to-implement suggestions, The Ultimate Book of Unplugged Family Activities provides a year's worth of inspiring alternatives, such as ideas for entertaining kids while you cook, or for turning sick days into indoor crafts days; ideas for distracting kids while waiting in a long queue or for engaging them in games during a long car trip. Comprehensive and constantly creative this is a book that no household with kids should be without.

About the Author: Husband-and-wife team Steve and Ruth Bennett have written more than fifty books on parenting, the environment and other topics. Their best-selling 365 TV-Free Activities you can do with your Child has sold nearly a million copies.
