"Screen Time"

I was worried about the amount of time that Lexa seemed to mindlessly watch TV so I did a little online research. The AAP recommends that children 2 years and up only watch 1 to 2 hours of TV a day! Let's just say that she got a lot more than that on a normal Saturday. This week we have started to scale it down to the recommended 2 hours. So now when she does get to watch her favorite show of Little Bear or Little Einsteins she actually pays attention. By the way the AAP recommends no TV for children under 2. Logan doesn't really have much of an interest in it right now but it surprise me how much he will try to look at the TV.
