My children would love to screen hop all day long during the summer. You know how it goes. They hop from the TV, to the tablet, and then to the computer. But that leads to cranky children and an even crankier mom. How do we keep them busy without it breaking the bank? Well...I did a little digging. Look at some of the great activities I found!
