Nickelodeon’s Worldwide Day of Play
According to their website, Nickelodeon is going to “go dark” this Saturday, the 26th of September, for three hours, and is encouraging families and kids to take that time to go outside and play!
Not only that, they’ve posted a free pdf that has a bunch of games and other ideas for your playtime activities.
I think it’s a great idea!
When I was a kid, my sister and I were “allowed” to watch only two hours of TV a day…of course, that changed a bit when we were left unattended, and as we got older and the television became even more ubiquitous in our culture.
I wonder during what time those three hours will fall…

Turn-off the TV and lace-up the shoes! Time to play hard and get dirty. Great initiative by Nickelodeon.
