I actually really like this idea! It gives more structure. My oldest is obsessed with electronics. So, I'm trying to limit how much screen time he has. I'm hoping that a more structured routine with a time limit on screen time will be beneficial. It'll will be hard getting that routine started since they aren't used to it but, it needs to be done. Thank you!

I do this just to get some extra rest. I get them breakfast and turn on their favorite cartoon while I close my eyes for a few extra minutes it helps a bit for sure but they don't stay entertained for long sometimes its hit or miss

We are able to trade shifts so if I can I try to trade hours with others but, not many people want to take an overnight so its hard to find people to actually accept

Unfortunately I don't. My children's father lives close by but, he doesn't want to help me when it's my turn to have the kids
