Valentine's Day boxes
It doesn't matter if the tv is on or off, Emma has interesting outfits EVERYDAY
A few science experiments (including but not limited to, elephant toothpaste-pictured above, borax crystals, microwaving ivory soap, homemade lava lamp)Two trips to the library, occupy Smalley living room, playing outside, aquarium, valentines day
Well all in all I think we did okay last week. On Monday Sarah informed me that if I wasn't playing video games or watching tv I was okay, so I limited my screen time to once a day for a few minutes a day. I let Emma watch 2 movies while I did the treadmill but that was about it. David I think took it the hardest and by Thursday he asked if he could go to his friends house (where screen time is aloud) and didn't come back for a few hours. All in all we did great.

Good job! More on the science experiments, please! I'd love it if you did a post on just those (and how to do them). Liv is a hug science girl!
Way to go! I tell my kids they can only watch/play games before school. They all get up bright and early, get ready for school, make their lunches and still have a few minutes to watch a cartoon or play a video game. Then no games or tv after school unless homework is done. I had to instate a no getting up before 6 am rule though because they wanted to set their clocks for 5:30....ridiculous. It doesn't work perfectly everyday but we are watching less tv/computer but they don't feel starved from it.
