Only when they have enough (30 minutes for a standard show) do they get to decide together on a show, movie or PBS game to play.

Things like putting away their shoes in the drawer, their dirty clothes in the hamper after bathtime and being kind to one another earn them screen time minutes. We do have expectations by which they earn all their screen time. We do not have a current “chores chart” or allowance earning plan in place for them. I started by analyzing our current expectations for our kiddos. They’re centrally located in our kitchen and streamlined to reduce clutter.ĪNALYZE AGE-APPROPRIATE EXPECTATIONS FOR YOUR KIDS I created a Summertime Schedule and Expectations Chart for the kids that will hopefully help us maneuver through the days a bit smoother.Ĭlearly these are oriented towards my kiddos but I wanted to share them (or at least the idea of them) because you can easily adjust these to suit your own children. So I’m trying to bring that into our summer routine without summer losing some of that marvelous ease we all look forward to.

During the school year we run a lot smoother because we have clear expectations in place. As much as I love the freedom it brings, there’s also something about the inconsistency of the day that makes parenting a bit harder. It’s that glorious time of year…long days, bright nights and no early morning runs to school– Summertime.
