I still remember the days when I spend most of my childhood outdoors, playing cops-and-robbers, patintero, cycling in Luneta, swimming in Rizal Memorial, Jogging with my dad… But lately when I see kids, they are mostly spending time with their XBox, PS3, they are even immersed playing with their PSP in Malls.
I found this book online that aims to help parents get their kids out of the couch and into the sun. The book was written by Eugene Buchanan is an experienced writer, avid outdoors-man and the father of two girls.
