[quote=Anonymous]Single mom with 9 year old child who talks all day. Also I work as a professor! To get in more reading I say 1 hour "free choice" fiction and 1 hour free choice non-fiction -- and I buy tons of books and make lists on Epic. Also, screens are fine between 9 and 5 as long as it's educational. Just make a Google Doc with links and keep track of what she watches. She'll discover her passions this way. The reading hour can be for "quiet time" for you and you'll get more time if she finds something to watch or do by herself. My son at this age unfortunately does not play much on his own. We do nature walks and things like that together, which help both of us.[/quote]
