How true! I recently enrolled my 7 year old in a Girl Scout day camp for the main premise to be outside! I have had numerous friends of hers over this summer only to hear them ask, when will we watch tv? Lucky for us, we also live by a wonderful walking trail and that usually will distract the kids and open up their eyes to outside. Let's face it, growing up in the 70s we biked everywhere and played until "dusk". I don't want this next generation missing out on that! How true! How true!
