Screen Time Moratorium

Sometimes the kids need a break from screen. As a general rule we don't let them have much screen time but even the little bit they get can be too much. All it takes in one day with a little more than usual & my next week is filled with "Please, please, please!" 

So, when screen time gets to be too much we have a Screen Time Moratorium where we put the phones, TV, and ipad away.

On our most recent such day, the kids got their break but only sort of. Here they are: 

It might be hard to see but this is the kids playing Plants VS. Zombies (an iPad favorite) but on our dry erase board. See the plants on one side shooting peas at the zombies on the other. Ingenious.

That's one thing my kids will do instead of watching tv. They love to draw and color.
