Quotes by Ginny Yurich (?)

“When our lives are filled with all the things that make us feel fully human, we begin to run out of time for screens and shake free from the grasp of the tech overlords.”
― Ginny Yurich, Until the Streetlights Come On: How a Return to Play Brightens Our Present and Prepares Kids for an Uncertain Future

“Boredom is not failure. Boredom is a springboard. It is a catalyst. It is gold. It is where the good stuff comes from. It is exciting. It represents endless possibilities. Boredom is a gift we hand to our children. It is the foundation of delight and discovery. Boredom is where we fall in love with painting, with music, with lying in the grass and watching the clouds float by, with life.”
― Ginny Yurich, Homeschooling: You're Doing It Right Just by Doing It

“Set down your phones. Run barefoot through the grass. Let snowflakes land on your cheeks. Break out a deck of cards on the deck. Lean in. Listen. Relax. Smile. Enjoy. Toss the baseball until the streetlights come on, and then watch the stars appear. You’re doing enough. Keep going. It’s the small things that add up to a big life.”
― Ginny Yurich, Until the Streetlights Come On: How a Return to Play Brightens Our Present and Prepares Kids for an Uncertain Future
