The Hidden Art of Homemaking Chapter 11: Creative Recreation

This chapter was another surprise. I expected recreational activities such as sports and extra curricular activities. Not exactly. Instead she suggests simply walking - getting away from technology and fabricated materials; to get into nature. Getting away will the produce creativity in the individual. The other side of this is creating something different - creating a new or different experience - for those in the family or group to do - to raise spirits or to boost their creativity.

Although somewhat challenging and encouraging I don't see my family implimenting this chapter soon. Sadly, life is in the way. She did provoke thought and consideration. We'll get there.
