You can be active with Technology at home... Here's How
Incorporating technology into your summer activities is a great way to keep your kids involved and active with technology.
Try mapping out your nature walk or hike by using sites like Map My Walk or Map My Hike. Encourage your family to take photos with digital cameras or smart phones along the route to share later.
Encourage family members to take photos of whatever looks pretty or interesting to them. Once you’ve got your digital cameras full of photos, have your family edit the photos and get creative with them. Use photo editing websites like BigHugeLabs Flickr and FotoTrix .
Do you have a video camera at home? Take it out of storage and let your family’s imagination run wild with it. Encourage your family to come up with new ideas of what to film. If your kids love to pretend and dress up, encourage them to create their own feature film.
Create a family journal. You can create a website to document a family vacation or maybe to journal a day in the life of your family’s summer at home.
Building robots and computers can help teach your family a lot about electronics.
