Doing things is one of those DNA things that was passed down to me, and my wife got similiar DNA passed on to her.

Our sons do things and make things happen. We see that this genetic Do things has been passed on to our grand kids. They had rather play or do things on their own than watch tv. Many of their peers watch tv hours each day, (bad habit at age 15 months to 3 years).

One of my favorite things is when they are watching tv is to ask them if they want to go outside to play or take a walk. Or if they want me or Grand Ma to read to them. The oldest one turns of the TV immediately, and they are ready to do things!

Thanks again.

My kids HAD to "do" stuff. I wouldn't let them watch TV all the time, and they were much better off. My GS, on the other hand, spends FAR too much time watching the TV, playing video games, etc. Grrrrrrrrrr
