Our television is never on during the day. We usually have classical music playing.

I have it on during the first part of the day but really they watch it on and off. Never for hours at at time.

They are 15 months, so for now they don't watch any and we don't have the TV on until after they are asleep (we couldn't hear it even if we wanted to ).

Default Re: How much television?

On average, about 30 minutes for our 4 year old.

That means a lot of days he doesn't watch any TV...and some days we watch movies for 2 hours. Or a few episodes of Justice League or something.

What really bothers me is when he watch TV when I'm talking to him. Like...he'll walk into the room...a dumb commercial is on, and he won't look at me. It's like he's a TV zombie or something.
