    Oh, awesome. I am planning a “Chores for Screen Time” bartering program this summer for my 11-year-old, and these will be perfect.

    I bought a roll of raffle tickets from Office Depot (2000 tickets for $4) and use those for TV time for our 4 year old son. Each ticket is worth 15 minutes. When my daughter gets up old enough to use the tickets, we’ll get another roll in a different color We recycle them each night, and since we have so many, I’m getting my friends hooked on this idea and sharing our supply and this great hack!
