My DS is 2 and has been going to the same childminder since he was 9 months. She is very good, in that she gives him a lot of love and attention. But I am starting to get worried, as I think he probably watches too much Tv and I don;t think there is any structure to what she does with him. Quite often he is the only child there, either that or its him and another 3 year old. As far as I can gather most of the time they are out shopping with her, or going to the hospital with her (she's not well), or just playing. Am I being OTT and is this fine for a 2/3 year old, or would he be better off at nursery where they have more structured activities?? He does go to playgroup three times a week, so he does have a fair amount of interaction with other kids and he's a pretty outgoing little chap anyway, its more the educational side of things I'm worrying about.
