When I was under 5, I was glued to the TV because we lived in the city, and it was too dangerous to go outside. My parents then moved to the mountains where there was a huge national park to play in. My Dad took a big pay cut, our house was a run-down dump, but kids don't care about that stuff. We had a street full of kids to play with, we literally lived outside from dawn to dusk, and often slept outside under the stars. We eventually rebuilt and expanded the house, and I learned a huge amount in the process about hard work, and delayed gratification. My parents had their problems, but they were wise to make this choice.
