Earning TV/Video Game Time

Tweet This


"Mom can I can play video games, my room is clean," says Vinny.

"Yes, if you read to Gio for 30 minutes," I say.

"Okay," says Vinny, avid reader.

This is a win-win for all of us. Vinny practices reading out loud, clearly enunciating his words. Plus he gets 30 minutes of video game time.

Gio gets quality reading time with his awesome big brother, and 30 minutes of TV time upon completion.

And finally, Mommy can scrub the bathroom floor on her hands and knees, without any interruptions.


"Gio are you listening?" asks Vinny.

"Yeah," answers Gio.
