Hi!! I decided to cut out screen time this week, too. I decided to do no screens M-Th. We homeschool, and we're still trying to finish up our school year, so I used to let them watch t.v after school as an incentive, but decided that t.v. is a privilege, and if they don't do school, they can't watch it on the weekends, and it's really going well for us too!! My kids have already adjusted to the new rules, their behavior is better, and yes, they're more creative and reading more, playing better together too! I recently read a study that even 2 hours a week can have negative impacts, but I think a family movie night is a good thing! Glad it worked well for you too!!

I'm also sticking with it! No screens M-Th for us. I might cut out Sunday's and Fridays eventually too!
Love this! Thanks for sharing!
