Great tips, we become immune to the daily noise but kids are always ready to tune in & just sit & watch

my grandson loves hearing music so I try to turn the tv off and play more music when we’re inside

We are fortunate to live in a neighborhood with lots of kids around, so that in itself limits my daughter’s screen time without me even have to implement rules. The kids are sledding, rolling around in the snow, & running around all the time. But I have friends who live in areas with no kids around & their screen times increase significantly.

In reply to Maya Fitz. Great idea! We don't have a TV for this reason. I also limit computer time. It is a bit easier with multiple kids on one computer...they are limited in time simply because they have to take turns. I also enjoy spending time outside so when the weather cooperates we are out in the park or playing sports in the field.
