I'm not a big fan of "screen time" (as scissorbill put it) either, although I have been known to let the kids have some every day. But I will admit that the wii is pretty darn cool. Even little ones can get into it (my four year old can bowl better on the wii than in real life because he doesn't have to weight of the bowling ball, and has so much fun doing it!) We don't have one (expensive!) but I think that down the line we will - great for all ages!

Kris, thanks for checking out my blog and letting me know that I won a free dairy product. I will email you my address. Love your blog. I would like a Wii as I think it would make us more active.

My sister-in-law bought a Wii under the "physical activity" spell, too. Then the kids figured out that they can swing the Wii-mote around just as easily with their behinds parked on the house. The two youngest can take it or leave it, but the oldest is a Wii addict already.

I go back and forth on time in front of a screen (she says as her two girls slip away in the tractor beam of Little Bill). Time for a walk.

The only games Lillianna and I play are on the Webkinz website. That wii thing looks interesting but I wouldn't want it in my house.I guess I'm not very helpful....sorry.

Good for you for being able to go out with your husband. Last Saturday I came home from work at 2pm and decided that since Lil was at a sleepover,Rich and I would go out for dinner with one of the three gift certificates we have. I was so excited until I pulled into the parking lot and realized his car was home 4 1/2 hours early and Rich was home puking! So much for dinner!!
On that note.....Happy Easter!

I'm not a big fan of 'screen time' and I limit our 6 year old to an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening of any type of screen, which I still think is too much. But I'm a huge fan of the Wii. He plays Lego Star Wars and runs and jumps enough to work up a sweat. I prefer that he spend his screen time in front of the Wii and it was worth every penny. Even Grandma plays it-she loves to bowl.
