[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No to the instrument for logistical reasons. Yes to everything else. In fact, I do make my kids do “homework” on vacation! 15-30 minutes a day either in the early morning or during the youngest’s nap time. And they would do this anyway, but I remind them to bring plenty of books for reading. As you can probably tell, we do very limited screentime, really only to relax together at the end of the day.[/quote] I can tell you've taught your kids that the two choices are work or relaxing with screens. Poor kids, you're setting them up for addiction as soon as those restrictions drop. [/quote] I hope you’ve taught your kids better reading comprehension skills than you have yourself! I literally said, they bring books for reading. That is their preferred form of r&r, not screens. They don’t even really ask for screens, and when they do we make it a group activity.[/quote]
