The Joys of Doing Nothing

I read a great article this morning on making sure kids have enough unstructured time.  I am afraid we have fallen victim - I mean we have chosen - to let our kids become involved in too many extracurricular activities and the result has been a shortage of "free" time and family time.  We've begun our family transformation to a simpler life, but we're not finished reducing outside activities just yet.
