Watching television is one of pass time activities in the modern life or modern family. However,
We would like to stop the children to stay away or stay less in front of the television due to some negative effects, but the children will complain what can be done or can they do if switch off the T.V.
I have read a book with the title 300 activities without T.V, but I would like list out some scope of the activities and share with the parents here:
And, don’t forget to make the process with some fun, so the kids would like to do it again and again.

For me, the best thing is to have another peer come over the house. I did that to our daughter when she was still a kid.
We would ask the neighbor's kid to come over the house. The kid would be there in the house with our kid the whole day. The helper would let the kid eat with our daughter and they really have fun playing.
In the evening it's our turn to play with our daughter. :)
Yes, you are right, @Dina,the kids need another peer, if not, they might need the parent to stay along almost the whole day.
I have two kids, so they can play with and play around sometimes, but do need the guidance from the parents sometimes.
Some single kid can play and stay alone for hours, it's good also for them to have "me" time, I think.
There is a lot more you can do. I would like to write an article on this myself. As we did not have a T.V as my kids were growing up I have a lot of experience! One thing I did was create a craft box with all sorts of things to make things with and paint and brushes and glue and junk. If it would work to make something, into the craft box it went. We had many happy afternoons getting that box out and once, my daughter and I used a huge cardboard box and made it into a play oven. That was an afternoon and then other afternoons "cooking" for the dolls.
Those are actually all the things I did when I was younger. I am a 90's child so cellphones and computers were fairly a recent thing especially the Internet.
But my favorite things to do when I was a child was playing with my neighbor. Would would make up the weirdest games,camping in our back yard or just play finding Waldo.
Those were the times we're we actually spent quality. time with people.
Now a days I see children with iPhones even and that is something I dont find right. I can't say how to parent a child but let them be a child while they can. Once technology hits it will be impossible to get them off it.
