Its not a lot of screen time really where only home on a wednesdays and weekends and we do other stuff at home, a tv on in the background doesnt mean shes sat infront of it from waking up to bed, she has an alexa and tonnie box as well of loads of role play toys it was just a thought so we have her full routine in her room and little treats like movie in bed in my room, i always had a tv in my room as a young child and never effected my development.
What's wrong with screen time in general if you're giving them daily attention and looking after them constantly? I was against it and my little one ended up having a tv in her room cause we had a spare small tv, also until she was 3 years old for few hours in the night time she had white noise in the background. She's 4 now and sleeps quite well by herself in her own room.
@Laura my LG is at nursery 2 full days a week, we also do baby groups twice a week and have a chill day on a Wednesday cos i work from home and have a weeke d just us, doing errands and that, we play and read books and theres always sound in the background with music cos she loves music wether that being from the tv, alexa or tonie box, i just didnt know if i should put a tv in her room so have that cosy time in her space to watch a movie or chill time rather then in my room all the time, its noy for her to sit and watch tele 24/7 she wouldnt sit still long enough to do that shes to active for that c
We have a TV in my sons room. It hardly ever gets turned on, but I had it in there for me when he was newborn. So I could watch TV whilst we fed or contact napped etc. Now and again if we are ready for bed early we will watch something in there together. Or if I need to leave him in there whilst I nip to the loo or something he has it on
Honestly if it works do it. We have TV on in the background to. I have settled my little one down for a nap before with bedtime songs on. He fell a sleep so relaxed and had a great nap. My 5 year old has a TV in his row on he watches it for a little before bed it's his wind down he sleeps all night. He's great at school a lovely boy. Never affected his IQ or anything like people try and say about screen time. I wind down to TV in bed also. X
I would not do a TV in the bedroom at this age honestly. This already sounds like quite a lot of screen time during the day. Maybe something like a Yoto or something else audio-based might be a good replacement? Mine likes to nap with her Yoto playing.
