We haven't limited the computer time or kindle time so long as they're on it for educational/reading purposes. The video games and tv though are off M-F. However, I've recently allowed them to earn time up to 30 minutes/day for doing fun educational things they tend to gravitate away from. Like Little J is a reluctant writer, but if he'll practice with me and work on a writing piece, he can earn his time. I'm not sure if I like it yet or not...<br /><br />Kelly at Little Wonders' Dayshttp://www.littlewondersdays.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273924113368098302.post-14049814832057221452014-01-17T18:02:24.379-06:002014-01-17T18:02:24.379-06:00It's always interesting for me how others appr...It's always interesting for me how others approach computer time. I am planning my own post on that, but we are trying the approach now that has 30 minutes of computer time a day that can be carried over if not used but capped at 3 hours. We are working on organization, so on the days when she forgets to get things from school or to school, she doesn't get her computer time. She can only use her time when her chores are done, and her homework is completed. It works quite well so far.Natalie PlanetSmartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531558038661679151noreply@blogger.com
