I’d be okay if it were only the electronic devices and not the lights that go out. All the non-power activities I can think of require light to see by.
One time when I was still teaching Colonial History I finished up early and the teacher and I let the students try my ball-and-cup toy. They had a blast! Mrs. L and I remarked that this was probably the only time the kids had ever played a game that didn’t need to be plugged in.
When I was a kid and the power went out in the summer, we got on our bikes and peddled to the local gas station. If the power was out for over and hour (and it frequently was) they sold their ice cream at a drastically reduced price.

Explore your creativity and learn to draw trees as wonderfully as Russell Myers.

How old is this comic? These days, all computers run on batteries. It would take them several hours without power to stop working completely.
