Screen-Free Week Activities

Screen-Free Week is an annual event where children, families, and schools around the world turn off screens and take a break from digital entertainment for one week.

Participants engage in activities such as reading, spending time outdoors, playing sports, being creative, and spending more time with family and friends.
