No Screen, No Fun.

Carnival of Homeschooling: Homeschool kids can entertain themselves! After an episode of defiance and general naughtiness, D. was punished with "no screen" for all of today. That means no TV, computer or video games. He thought he'd be miserable all day with NOTHING TO DO!!!!

So far today he has scooped the algae out of the pond, dug up a dead fish to see how it was decomposing, made a ransom note out of letters clipped from a magazine, created characters from his tangram pieces, taken his bike apart, drawn cartoons, jumped on the trampoline, fed and watered the dogs, and put away his tent.

Poor baby.

I love it when kids do very creative things while punished off of television. The same thing happens over here.
