Screen time and speech

I let my little girl have screen time from 6-7:15pm every evening. She watches Aprende Peque or Miss Nena they’re like spanish versions of Miss Rachel. I would say absolutely no delays in speech. She knows her letters and can count to 10 by herself (we’re practicing counting to 20 now) plus she knows some animals and the sounds they make. She’s learning new words everyday. I talk to her alllll day though and explain things that I’m doing. She’s 17 months old.

We did no screen time until 1 and now my son watches maybe an hour a week. He mostly watches Bear in the Big Blue House and occasionally Ms Rachel. No speech delay, is saying 60+ words. He’s 16 months

I have a 3 y.o. so it's on if he's watching something but she usually won't watch anything. Ms Rachel is good, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Disney classic movies, or whatever my 3 y.o. is watching. She can say about 10 words but knows/does a few signs. She isn't as talkative as my other one but I wouldn't say she's necessarily delayed

I personally struggle with talking to my child. I’m working on it. But I only let him watch Ms Rachel from 6:30-8pm and then bedtime routine. I don’t think his delay is because of screen time… I honestly feel is because both my partner and I struggle either way talking to him. Now we are narrating everything. I speak to him in English and Spanish. We also spend summers in DR where everyone talks to him in Spanish. I’m just being patient with the process.

Pretty much everyday has screen screen time and he is a talker. 60+ words, 3 words together.
Trash truck, Lucas the spider, classical baby, Rio is his favorite movie.

you started screen time from how many months exactly ?

I didn't avoid him seeing it if I was watching something but didn't show him kid shows until he was probably about 9 months. Don't overthink it too much- do what works for you! No one thing will cause delays. It's about balance

We read versus screentime, BUT, if he's sick, had a doctors appointment, or is having a really rough time (say he's teething badly, or horrible sleep regression) we let him watch a little bit of TV and it's Miss Rachel only.
We also let him watch "Super Simple Songs" bc it's only nursery rhymes.
Nothing else allowed! No speech delays, but we also read a TON to him

I haven’t had a problem with screen time, my son has good comprehension and answers questions and says words. He doesn’t have the clearest speech but it’s not bad. The shows you have to worry about are the ones that don’t pronounce words correctly. They will make it harder for kids to learn to speak properly. I also don’t talk in a baby talk to my sons ever which helps. But at like 13 or 14 months he was saying doctor for Dr Pepper. 🤣🤣🤣

My baby doesn’t watch tv at all and is speech delayed, he doesn’t say anything yet.
