Language Development TV time should be limited • Stock the room in which you have your TV with plenty of other non-screen entertainment (books, kids’ magazines, toys, puzzles, board games, etc.) to encourage your child to do something other than watch the tube. • Keep TVs out of your child’s bedroom. • Turn the TV off during meals. • Don’t allow your child to watch TV while doing homework. • Treat the TV as a privilege that your child needs to earn – not a right to which he or she is entitled. • Tell your child that TV viewing is allowed only after chores and homework are completed.
