Week 7 - SCREEN Detox-Game

Week 7THIS WEEK Game Day - DETOX-AGEDDON CHALLENGE
1. Mission or ActivityScreen Detox Game. With your WHOLE family.
As a whole family play this game:
1st Set the Winnings.
Figure out what each of you want if you win.
Eg. A special, food or treat. The whole family watching a favourite movie. A chore you want your family to do if they lose. NO school work for a day, because Mr. Kirby said so...
2. Set the rules.
I would suggest that all devices are in one central location and shut off. As bings and bleeps make it more challenging.
Work does count as losing as IT IS SUNDAY NO WORK!!
3. Start the timer. See how long you last.

When you lose share it in our social space URL.

I think you should have a routine of Non-Free Time screen time in the Morning.
Social Post the WINNERS time.
