TV = Babysitter?

Guilty as charged! shame on us – i know – but yes – we do use the tv as the babysitter for Chloe and i’m sure all of you are not different too. Even though we try to argue that we put on only good shows or education shows for our kids – it’s time not to depend on the tv too much. Chloe is at the age – where she is bored when left alone – she can only watch a new show once – and then she won’t go back to it for a long time – well – except for Hannah Montana. So this year – we’ve enrolled her to lots of stuff – from hip hop dancing to reading classes at school and now that she is willing to go to her Grammie’s – it’s even better. So this summer – I don’t have to fret no more to send her to summer camp or look for a sitter for her. This summer – Chloe can be outdoors with Grammie & Grampie planting peas and strawberries and go to the beach with Aunt Helena. It is definitely a milestone for Chloe – I’m hoping to see more independence – thus the reason for all these extra classes – instead of a one to one sitter.
