ok
so we are tv free have been since way before dd
we do have a dvd player on the computer adn dh and i watch a movie about once a month
someone sent us a short video clip of a cartoon easterbunny dancing and singing for dd's easter surprise
she LOVES it
and would watch it everyday
if the computer is on she is asking for it (she is almost 2)
so now i am trying to decide if we should break down and buy her a kids music video type thing
i think the wiggles are weird, but she propably woudl lvoe them
she loves music and singing and dancing
which we do alot of all day long, live and in person
we make up songs and dance around
we sing songs that we already know and use instuments
daily
i took her to kinder musick last year but the whole thing freaked her out kind of
i will try again this year
but what i am getting at asking is
if you are tv free do you let your dc watch videos, which ones?
how often?
i see this spiraling out of control in our family
i don't want to dight her over tv/video watching
i don't want it to be an issue or an option
i like to spend our time living and our down time really resting etc
BUT
if she loves it, would it hurt?
so i am interested in anyones take on this issue
i know someday we will have to let her have a tv, IF she wants one b/c we want to offer her the respect of letting her choose what seh wants and then figuring it out
but now, she is still too young to ask for a movie specificaly, but yet i am thinking she might enjoy one.
i hate disney.....oh now i am rambling
ok
tell me what you think!
