The arrangement we have worked out is if Chacne does his workbook pages today (usually 5 pages) then tomorrow morning he will be able to watch cartoons in the morning, if not then he doesn't. Well, last week Chance decided he didn't need to do his workbook pages so there was no TV. This wasn't a problem for him and really not a problem for me either since I am always eager to cut back on screen time. On the first morning he was upset even though he knew it was coming but after a few minutes he went to get his legos and set up a whole town on my bathroom counter. He played in there for nearly two hours building and rebuilding his town and driving cars all over the place. And he did the same thing for the next three days even though one of the days he did his workbook pages he chose to come back and play legos and cars. It worked out great for me because I got to stay in bed resting while he played and he was using his imagination and building skills rather than sitting in front of a screen. This is just a little mosaic I made of him being silly playing with his cars.
