Summer Unplugged: I Document My Kids Spending Idyllic Summers Without Computers
Since 2012 I document my children's and their cousins' holidays in the countryside, small village near lake Ługowiska in Poland. You can see my first post here.
Summer without a computer, the internet and video games, only children's creativity, friendship, and fun in nature.

LOVE these SO much! When we had our hobby farm, the kids were only allowed to use the tv, video games, computers at certain times. Those times were strategically picked as being times that they wouldnt be able to do outdoor activities anyways. The kids NEVER complained about it! They were having too much fun swimming, riding go-karts, horseback riding, fishing, ice skating (in winter) etc!
wonderful memories :) for my kids it is still possible (during summer) :)

They transport me to the memories of my childhood, yet the time in these makes my memories seem more grounded in the present. How much we and our children miss when constantly tethered to electronic screens and out of touch with the earth, or living creatures and each other. (Our four year old granddaughter arrives this weekend, and we're just going to play, create, cook, visit, draw and learn to swim!

This is SO great! There is something special that nutures/teaches children from this kind of a lifestyle. They will have an empathy/creativity that cannot be learned any other way! KUDOS!
yesterday was my birthday i became 70..i drank in your photos....put my head down on a pillow and cried....thank you for bringing back to me the wonderful childhood i thought i lost.....your photos are marvelous
These children are so beautiful and the contrast.. Wow! Izabela, you are truly inspiring with this uhhmazing photography!
I have yet to have children, however, I am very much inspired to create my kids' summer's like these :)

such a perfect way to raise children, away from all the pointless technology.. Kids nowadays don't get to have a real childhood, which is such a crying shame coz they can never redo it, never get the innocence back.
You are using pointless technology to write this. ;) the dosage makes the poison!
Load More Replies...Yeah, but these kids live on a farm. This would be a lot harder for kids living in the suburbs or city with nothing to do.
these kids don't live on the farm; they're just spending the holidays in the countryside. They probably even came from the city. Here's the original: https://www.boredpanda.com/children-photography-summer-izabela-urbaniak/
