A Calm Screen-Time Guide for Parents of 3 to 7 Year Olds

A practical guide for parents: pick a set length, watch together, use chapter breaks to stop, and follow up with a free printable. Episode lengths listed.

Five simple habits

  1. Pick the length first (20, 40 or 60 minutes) and choose a video that matches.
  2. Co-view when you can and ask: "What was the giant object? What would you build?"
  3. Stop at a chapter break, not mid-scene.
  4. Follow with a free coloring page from the same episode.
  5. See the American Academy of Pediatrics family media plan at healthychildren.org.
