A community of Oregon parents choosing real play.
We connect low-screen families across Oregon, share honest research on how screens affect children, and help parents bring hands-on, human-centered learning back to our schools.

Our school positionGuiding principles
What we hold to.
Evidence first.
We say what research shows and what it doesn't. Every summary in our library names the kind of study and how strong the evidence is. When a study only shows a link, we call it a link.
No shame.
Every family's situation is different. We offer options and support, not judgment. Screens show up differently in every home, and we share what has helped other families so you can decide what fits yours.
Accessibility respected.
Accommodations are essential, full stop. AAC devices, assistive technology, and IEP and 504 accommodations sit outside our advocacy, and every template we share protects them.
Parent-led and local.
Change happens district by district. This community is run by volunteer parents, and school conversations start with families in one district talking with their own school board.

Judging anyone's family
Every home is different, and there is no single right answer.

We share research and ideas. The people who know your child best come first.
