We are in the thick of winter right now and you might have found yourself reaching for your phone or your remote a little more often. Winter has a way of stretching our evenings long and making screens feel like the easiest option to entertain us, pass the time, and keep the kids occupied. When it’s cold, dark, and especially if everyone’s been together all day, it’s tempting to default to tablets, TVs, or phones just to get through until bedtime. And if that’s been your rhythm lately, that’s okay. This episode isn’t to shame you, but I think most of us want to turn to screens less and spend more time together as a family. And winter can also be such a good opportunity for family connection with slower paced nights and more indoor time with the people we care about. In this episode, we talk about what winter family time can look like without screens, not in a super strict or guilt-driven way, but in a realistic, life-giving way. I share some screen boundaries that we put in place and simple ideas and habits that help your family actually enjoy being together during these colder months.
