A summer schedule

         Since we got another Ipad my mom has been saying "get off that ipad" 24/7. So my parents came up with a simple  solution to the problem. Make a summer schedule. We are still getting used to it.But It limits our screen time, and my mom has put in a learning time so we get some summer learning in. It annoys us sometimes, but we know (at least I know) that it is for the best. Below is a copy of our summer schedule, if you want to use it.
