[quote=Anonymous]I know it sounds crazy, but look up some of the babywise schedules for 3 & 5 year olds. You can find more specifics on how it is done, but basically you get a sheet of paper and - label wake-up time at the top and bedtime at the bottom - put in nap time for your 3 y/o first. Those are usually non-negotiable. - put in breakfast, lunch, and dinner times - put in tv time/screen time before lunch and dinner (and I suggest clean-up time before tv) - take the leftover segments and put in other activities: reading, “school,” crafts, free play, board games, chore time, quiet time, movie nights, etc. - teach your kids how to tell time on a digital clock. “It’s not time for TV yet...we have clean-up at 12:30, then TV time. It’s only 12:00, so you need to find something to play. Come get me at 12:30.” [/quote]
