Banning iPad use

During lockdown my dd (6) started using iPad more and more and this habit was becoming hard to break. She was using it for school work/ educational apps but also plays games on it. Last week she had an eye test and I seized the opportunity to get consultant to discourage iPad use.

It worked a treat and she hasn’t used it since. I don’t mind her watching tv as she still potters around.

However I realise that it will be hard during the winter to avoid using it a bit so I’m going to be very strict with time on it.

Can I ask how long does your 6 year old use iPad for?

We don't limit it. We just keep an eye on it and take it off him if we think he's had too much time on it.
