After watching Toy Story 5 , Justin and Kylie found themselves talking less about the movie and more about what happens when tablets replace cubby houses, craft tables and backyard adventures. Kylie shares how teaching their 12-year-old daughter to sew sparked confidence, patience and a brand new business idea. They also unpack the message Toy Story 5 sends about technology, why it missed an important opportunity, and what parents can do instead. If screens have become the default in your house, this episode offers practical ideas that don't involve another argument. KEY POINTS What Toy Story 5 gets right about childhood. The screen time message the movie missed. Why sewing, baking, gardening and other \"grandma hobbies\" are making a comeback. How making something with your hands builds confidence. Why learning alongside your child strengthens your relationship. The family project that turned into a small business. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE \"The joy isn't making something. The joy is making it together.\" RESOURCES MENTIONED Toy Story 5 Happy Families resources on healthy screen habits ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Pick one hands-on hobby your child can learn this month. Sewing, baking, gardening, woodworking or knitting all work. Learn it together instead of handing them a YouTube tutorial. Watch Toy Story 5 and ask what they noticed about the kids using screens. Set aside one afternoon each week to make something you can hold, use or give away. Celebrate what your child creates, even when it's wonky.
