We only have a Wii and the kids go in spurts playing with that. Super Nanny and I both say to have a set amount of time for computers and TV...how long...Idk...I got lucky that my girls are readers and Jack just wants to be outdoors. When the girls get on a TV kick somehow the remotes go missing for a day or two...hmmmm? I've mostly just done verbal but super Nanny does a lot of charts for that age. (sorry...but I love her and she does some major child transformations!) After so many stars...stickers...etc, they get a gold coin, then after 10 got a special treat. Or if you see them do something extra or nice...you can give them another coin!
