This is a great idea! I am going to do this tonight. I also think it is a great idea to share with parents of my grade 1 students! Very visual very easy to understand and self monitoring to an extent!! A good way to reduce the tv in some households too! Thank you!!! Hey!! This is a great idea! I am going to do this tonight.

We called them TV tickets and I gave DD three at the beginning of the day and she turned one in to me each time she wanted to watch something. But I like your idea so much better because our "tickets" kept getting lost and didn't really create the great visual you have going. We did something like this for a time.

I especially love that it's reusable every day! My little one is 21 months old and I can already see the problems in the future with TV. He loves the Wiggles and Elmo. This is a great idea!

TV time is always a struggle in our household. It's good to have a "third party" like the chart to back you up. This is a great idea. TV time is always a struggle in our household.
