Otherwise known as In The Night Garden.
My 21 month old has just discovered In The Night Garden and whilst I of course have no problem with this, she is wanting to watch it whilst having her cereal before bed.
I personally don't want her getting used to watching TV during meal times (she'll no doubt wanna do that later on in life when I can't stop it but I don't want TV to be an association with food).
Last night she refused her dinner as well as the cereal later on and am almost certain both times were because she wanted to watch The Night Garden.
She ended up waking up in the middle of the night starving (naturally) so we had to give her a bottle.
Needless to say this is one routine i don't wish to get into.
Just unsure how to get her to understand that it's not on at that particular time and/or that she has her dinner and can then watch it.
Any tips??
