[quote=Anonymous]"Several hours" of live content is a LOT. Ours will barely tolerate 10-minute sessions for 2 or 3 times a day. Any way you can reflect this to the school, possibly in conjunction with other parents, while showing your appreciation for the effort they have put in? We have tried enticing them to the iPad with a snack, and allowing them to keep a non-noisy toy close by (while trying to keep said toy out of video view). And keep in mind that this is a lot for a 3-year-old, especially if this is her first time in a classroom setting - just being with a ton of strangers, doing stuff with strangers, speaking up among people, even if s/he knows the answer or knows what to do. Every day there is a tiny, tiny bit of progress for us, if it only means squirming a bit less and staring at the iPad for 30 additional seconds, and whispering the answer to the teacher's question without prompting from us. Best of luck to you. You're not the only one.[/quote]
