Screen time

How long do your little one watches tv? My pediatrician recommended zero screen time and I am finding it hard to comply!

On non daycare days I do 30 mins in morning and 30 at night, but we also frequently have adult tv in the background!

I give my LO 30 minutes of something educational, like Ms Rachel or Number Blocks. I was very anti screen time until I realized I was neglecting my own self care/mental health because I would never take an eye off of her. 🙈

I do zero screen time 🤷‍♀️ but a lot of my friends allow a little bit of tv for their children and they are developping just fine.

Too long lol

For us, we have it running in the background in variety of ways (adult shows, YouTube, music, kids shows, movies) for most of the day. Our little guy just plays with his toys while it’s running in the background. It’s been working for us and we stopped having that parent guilt about no screen time. Since it’s running for majority of the day, he doesn’t seem to have much interest in it.
