[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have little ones, 3 and 13 months, and we’re still hanging tough on no TV or screen games/shows.  It’s been pretty easy so far and we both want to get our youngest to at least two with no screens.

I can imagine it’s much, much harder with older kids.  [/quote]

I assume you don’t work?[/quote]

No, DH and I both work but we have a nanny.  [/quote]

So the collective "we're" was you, your DH, and a nanny. Ok :lol:

To answer OP's question: My almost 3 year old son is in playschool M and F 9-12 and then stays for full day 9-4 TWTH. On the full days, he has 0-30 minutes in the morning. On half days, since we are both working from home, he is allowed to watch a movie/Daniel Tiger/Bluey/Tumbleleaf from 1230-130/2. One parent takes Monday PM, the other Friday PM and that parent starts working at 630 so that only 1 hour of leave is utilized.

Before playschool/daycare opened up and we were both working with no childcare, he probably got 2-4 hours a day during both of our core hours. He also got 2-3 hours outside so it lessened the guilt. A 2.5 year old still needs to be "supervised" during play and I cant exactly give consistent and attentive work while on the floor/couch/etc.
