I read, worked outside with animals or gardening. We had a ranch and it took lots of work. But I'd say that reading, including a lot of researching and study, was my computer time in the past.

Played outside and studied and built rickety ramps to jump over with our bikes. Lots of things that resulted in bruises and scrapes.

I read more, watched TV, spent more time outdoors, went out more with friends. Yes, it's a little sad. Good Q.

Got dirty and built up our immune systems...got a little sunburnt, but got our vitamin D rations....laughed and laughed, cried, got hurt, probably hurt others a little sometimes.....lived life!

We rode our bikes, played on the school playground, went to the library, read books, went to movies, went once a week with our allowance to the Dairy Queen, went to museums, helped the neighbors shovel snow, rake leaves, and pull weeds, walked the three or four blocks to Aunt & Uncles houses, put on neighborhood fairs and plays, played board games, went to art classes at the park, and stayed all day.
