They truly are best friends and spend about 99% of their time playing random games and pretend scenarios. As a family, we LOVE spending time outside at parks (my husband loves to fly kites), playing board games and basically doing anything that involves a challenge. We are very much an “anti-electronic” family at the dinner table and we use this time to sit down together, talk about our day and play our silly game. Do you have any rules for the kids when it comes to screen time (television, computer, video games)?

The film didn’t fit, and that’s how I learned about medium format. We do let them watch Jewish videos that teach good values and morals, history, etc., though we do believe that videos are generally an inferior way of educating, and that (again, generally speaking) any moment glued to a screen is a moment lost to a better, healthier activity. It’s a good image of my kids goofing off, but I feel like it encapsulates that wonder of childhood. We all know that we can’t fly, but children aren’t so sure.

Jesse Burke is not only one of the newest member of Childhood Unplugged, he’s also the author of Wild & Precious, a collection of images he’s shot of his daughters in nature over the last few years. I think as parents we take the things we think worked from our own upbringing and push them forward onto our children and we discard the things we don’t think worked very well. The kid has seen more amazing things and done more amazing things than I have and she’s only 9. The way that they capture portraiture and it’s relationship to the landscape is absent particularly when Bullock’s images of his daughters at the beach and in the woods.
