Well, if I ever have kids, I just hope to get them interested in a musical instrument at an early age. I had piano lessons forced on me, which didn't stick and didn't do much for me. But once I hit escape velocity with the guitar, it was a lifelong companion and interest. Of course, now I play while I watch tv - ha ha.
Exactly. My dad started me on piano at 7, moved on to guitar at 10. Was always fun playing Zeppelin and Sabbath tunes with him, still is actually.

In my childhood we

rode BMX, built jumps and took our licks
skateboarded, built quarter pipes and learned balance
built and rode minibikes, nothing like a 5 horse Briggs
played music
went hiking

Video games never really appealed to me, TV always sucked except for things like Knight Rider, Dukes Of Hazard, A-Team, etc.. but that was always on friday nights with the family.
