How did it go? Did the kids actually get into it, or were they texting and looking at video games, etc?

That's a rule with our Boy Scout Troop...NO ELECTRONICS...PERIOD! No video games, no cell phones, no portable DVD players...nothing!

I'm thinking of implementing the same rule for my kids in the house. LOL

Well my daughter is banned from the computer, but thats at grandma's house. We specifically do not have a computer in the house. I use a laptop & wi-fi nearby, when Im home. If we do get a computer it will be in the living room facing my chair, where I can plainly see what is on the screen. They'll get cellphones, when they can buy some, so there's no texting going on in my house. And the tv and video games will be off this summer, because we're going crabbin, canoing, playing baseball, to the beach, throwing the cast net, and pretty much doing things outside. They have the rest of their life to be useless.
