“Children under 18 monthsshould NOT watch any

television/videos and thoseBetween 2-6 should watch

no more than an hour per day.”

Television forbabies, is

negatively associated withcognitive development

(Kirkorian, Wartella and Anderson, 2008)

and positivelyassociated with

language delays(Linebarger & Walker, 2005)


38

The more time children under five spend viewing,the less time they spend interactingwith others (siblings, parents, peers) or

engaging in creative play –the two activities known to promote learning.

(Vandewater, Bickham, & Lee, 2006)

It’s not about thetime spent with

screen,as it is about

what they

are missing out on.
