[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Allowed, sure. Would I? Definitely not. I work with infants and toddlers and it's not something they should be doing during the day. Before bed time or whatever is fine but during the day I think it's a no no unless the kids are sick or something.

I’m against “too much screen time” for toddlers, 5-10 mintutes a day or every other day doesn’t hurt. One of my charges is 19 months, when she watches a nursery rhyme (the same ones any time we watch it) she starts yelling out shapes, colors, animals and even counts (not so much letters but she can identify some letters in her name because we go over it everyday). [/quote]

At 18 months, my charge knew all her shapes, colors, animals and could sing the alphabet song and count to thirty without prompting - she was amazingly verbal and she never once saw a screen. We just talked - I pointed things out to her - and we read books.

I do not like any screen before two at the earliest and then never on my time.  [/quote]
