Book excerpt: The Gift of Green Time is a handy guide for families. It presents 50 ways for families to disconnect (and reconnect) outdoors, specifically in Door County, Wisconsin. Spending time outdoors with children is more important than ever before as today's kids have more screen time than green time. While toddlers can swipe a screen, few have tickled their bare feet in the grass. Teens are tech experts, but how many have camped under the stars? Technology is a valuable tool and one that is here to stay, but its magnetic quality threatens to draw our children inside where family members are consumed by their own devices. Kids are less active, family dynamics suffer, and a new generation loses its connection to nature. Today's families are feeling frazzled and stressed, but there is a simple solution. Spending time outdoors together is fun, inexpensive, and restorative. Whether you are a pet parent or managing a household of tots to teens, these 50 activities will get your family outdoors, enjoying all the benefits Door County has to offer.
