The Non-Electronic Adventures of Trevor and Tyler

About the Book

Every kid in the neighborhood was wired. Video games had become part of childhood. Trevor and Tyler spent a majority of their free time, hour upon hour, watching TV and playing computer and video games. They were hooked. They were technology junkies. This extended use of technology kept them from outdoor play and physical activity until one day their frustrated parents cut off their use of technology, unplugged their indoor life, and sent them into the backyard. Over the next two years they magically traveled from one outdoor adventure to the next to rediscover the joys of non-electronic unstructured play. You too, may want to pack up your video games and go outside and have an adventure.
