Should i limit tv for my 2-year-old?

Yes: It is important to set rules about television watching. Limit tv and video games to no more than 1 to 2 hours of quality programming per day. If you allow tv, watch with your child and discuss. Choose other activities instead of tv, such as reading, games, singing, and physical activity.

TV children: The AAP frowns on TV watching > 2 hrs/d for toddlers. It can overstimulate, prevent doing other physical and other learning activities that can be beneficial to their development.
