Does anyone have any tips, tricks or advice for breaking a screen habit with a 22 month old? Obviously cold turkey is of course an option but if there is any other methods that have worked well for others, I’m all ears
As a bit of background, DH ended up in hospital recently for a few days with heart problems and, in my mistaken effort to keep things running, I ended up letting DD watch cocomelon nursery rhymes on You Tube over breakfast and teatime. That hasn’t necessarily spiralled, but the constant requests for “all day long!”, “baa baa black sheep” and a remarkably close rendition of “wind the bobbin up” are getting a bit out of control.
I'm more than aware she shouldn’t be having any screen time at all at this age really (she’s at screen-free nursery during the week and weekends, we’re at the park, play cafe, wandering down the high st etc so much less of an issue) so I know I really need to crack the nut for her own good but the thought of the toddler rage is just…urgh
