We love when screentime leads to family fun. And when we can follow our kids' interests and passions. Here's a fun way our team has been spreading joy around KC this week. Go Chiefs! @chiefs @PatrickMahomes #RunItBack #bringingscreentimetolife


We love when screentime leads to family fun. Here’s our modified version of a @ChiaPetOfficial. We call him "ChiaPat" (sorry @tootgail - we know he's officially Patrick!). Go Chiefs! @chiefs @PatrickMahomes #runitback #bringingscreentimetolife

At START, we are big fans of co-viewing - enjoying movies or other media together as a family. For some, @hallmarkchannel Christmas movies are prime examples (as well as #Elf, #HomeAlone, etc.). We loved this Pandemic Hallmark Movie plot generator. Let us know what you get!

Last night's debate was BAD. Our kids are growing up in a world of social media which propels echo chambers, polarization, and disrespect. Join us for @SocialDilemma_ Saturday - a great way to understand and discuss these trends w/your kids.

Join us Saturday for a FREE screening of @SocialDilemma_. One reviewer said it "should be mandatory viewing for everyone who has a social media account." We think this is a great film to view WITH your teens/tweens and can lead to a great convo. bigmarker.com/start1/The-Soc…

This documentary looks so interesting - features convos w/former tech execs about what they saw behind the scenes - including a view of the control room showing how programmers send each of us customized feeds strategically designed to keep us scrolling. youtube.com/watch?v=uaaC57…
