Helping Out

Two years ago during the lockdown, I was getting concerned that my children were spending too much time watching TV and playing games. So I introduced ‘time tickets’ that help limit children’s screen time.

See my past blog about “Time Tickets“

As our lives returned to normal, the time tickets were also forgotten. But the other day, I decided to reintroduce this scheme. When we had this scheme during the lockdown, my children were given 30 tickets (each ticket is worth 30 mins) each week. This time, I changed the rule slightly. They must EARN the tickets by helping mummy out!

Here is this week’s cartoon.

Lockdown Cartoon #37: Guilt

I think lots of parents are juggling work and childcare at the moment. I feel guilty that I’m often working while my children are spending too much screen time at home.

But from the children’s point of view, they seem to be quite happy that I’m not overlooking them all the time.

Well, maybe I don’t need to be too harsh on myself after all?

Since schools are reopening soon and the children will be missing screen time at home?
