Question: Living Screen-Free in Syosset

It's National Screen-Free Week! How do you avoid wasting away in front of the TV?

This week is National Screen-Free Week. Families across the country are attempting to put down the remote, shut the laptops (after reading Patch, of course) to play outside, read, and enjoy nature.

How hard would it be to go completely screen-free? How will you participate in Screen-Free Week? Will you grab a book from and stick around for the free tai chi class? Or head to for a stroll? Maybe you'll opt for an outdoor seat at and enjoy the sunset!

Tell us how you will try to live screen-free this week! Give us your favorite outdoor and indoor activities to do with the family.
