I have 5 year old twins who LOVE YouTube. They watch complete shite - unboxing, other kids playing with toys they own and aren't interested in, weird cartoon vignettes. It's a very effective reward bribe but I was wondering if I should encourage them into something like roblox/minecraft as an activity with a bit more purpose.
However I know nothing about either. Of course I could google this, but I wanted opinions on whether this is something worth encouraging or just leave them to the YouTube chewing gum for the mind.
Ds in particular loves his screens and my husband is concerned that a game won't actually replace YouTube he'll just campaign for additional tablet time.
Any thoughts?
