Had the best day with my kids at the park

No phones, no rushing around, just me and my three at the park for like three hours. We played tag, went down the slides approximately one million times, had a picnic, and just goofed around. My oldest is getting to that age where he's into his own thing usually but today he was totally present and we were all just laughing and having fun together. These days are fleeting and I really felt grateful for it today. Definitely doing this again soon.

Three hours with no phones is basically a superpower these days. I'm constantly fighting to create those moments but everyone's always got their device. What made it stick this time?

This is what it's all about right here. No screens, no agenda, just being together. These are the days they're gonna remember when they're older, not the stuff you bought them.

Jealous of this day. Whenever I try to do phone-free time with my two they last about 15 minutes before asking for screens. How do you get past that initial resistance?
