This is an amazing idea. Congratulations! We have had shorter periods of this in my home. Mostly for the kids. :-) I don't know if I would be able to survive a digital diet. I work in technical support and spend my life administering computers and digital devices. It would be good, I think, to have 48 hours without technology. Perhaps during Christmas vacation. Thanks for the videos! Keep up the great work!

I applaud you for doing it, especially because of your kids who have been surrounded by it their whole life. I am really old-fashioned concerning technology, although I am only 27 years old. I have no smartphone, my cellphone survived a tractor and is 15 years old. I can text single texts and phone someone when needed. I have no phone at home. I own one laptop to check my mails and a radio for the kitchen and recently we got a TV. And that is all I can think of which can be labelled as digital.

Every once in a while, I do a 3-day silent retreat at a Jesuit Retreat House in Colorado. No phones or other tech allowed. It's bliss as you live communally with everyone, but don't speak. The walks are beautiful and peaceful and the naps are amazing. The only real "tech" is the one clock in the dining hall so you know what time meals are. I imagine you could bring an analog little clock for your room, but I love losing track of time. It's daytime... off to explore the grounds. It's nighttime... time to make some tea and go sit in the library and read! For someone who works digitally and online, these retreats are so re-energizing!

First, find a copy of "The Joy of Cooking". It will let you know how to prepare almost anything. Second, purchase some books. Especially books that you will read, and re-read because the stories are old friends. Their is nothing quite like holding an actual book in your hands to read. Buy some board games. Some classics like Monopoly stand the test of time, but their are many new games that are very fun to play. Many 20- and 30-somethings have regular game nights in their homes for their regular groups of friends. I am not technology adverse, but I refuse to be ruled by it. My not-smart cell phone is in the console of my truck, turned off. It is there in case I have an emergency.
