Encourage to live simply

Simple living, going green, and generally doing away with the unnecessary is gaining popularity :-)) And that's really cool.  I'am not definitely against it. 

But it’s all for naught if we don’t pass on a love of simplicity to the next generation – we depend on them to do a stellar job stewarding the earth’s resources.

While I were reading about lots of articles and forums regarding how to get rid of unnecessary toys and paring down kids’ schedules, I was astonished at all the research out there that indicates that children need lots of downtime, lots of freedom, and lots of room to use their imagination.

It’s hard to do that when we complicate their lives.
