[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were just trying to hold on as long as possible! Oldest was five and younger was three. Both were already reading (little one not fluently but enough to spend 20 minutes with a new book alone and read to herself) and loved books. TV is still not their first choice which is what we were hoping for. [/quote] We tried to avoid them completely before age 2, and definitely in moderation after that. We never did or needed to do specific time limits. We did not wait until the kids could read. They are currently 6 & 10, and we allow some screen time (mostly TV), but most days they don’t ask for it much or at all (even with no school right now). For example, today (a weekend), the 6 yo got no screen time (never asked) and the 10 yo watched part of a movie before bed. It’s just not their default, thankfully. [/quote]
