Tech CrecheIf you’re one of those people who never leaves their devices at home, whether this is a phone or a tablet, this might be a nice change for you. New Forest National Park in the UK has come up with the solution for people who want a break from the everyday technologies, but just never figured out the way how to do it. When entering the New Forest National Park you hand over all your devices, including car keys, and spend your day enjoying nature and the company of people around you. Hop on a bike or a bus and drive around the Park. Your devices are safely stored in a vault and you can collect them at any time.
Many will say - I can do that without Tech Creche. Can you really? Isn’t it simpler to have it as a rule instead of chasing your kids (or vice versa :) when they pop up their phones and play games or chat? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a break from it all? And there’s a bonus Prize Draw for the ones that decide to give it a go. Check out more here Tech Creche.
There’s just one thing bothering me here - if we hand over all devices, who’ll take our picture? :)
