Stumbled on this article on Twitter this morning.
Peter and I don't allow Peanut to watch television - you won't believe what kind of crazy looks we get from other parents when we tell them that our 19 month old doesn't watch TV (seriously, you would think we were saying that she sleeps in a box and eats all her vegetables). It hasn't been easy, but as a child who spends five full days at day care each week, we feel that the little time we have together is especially sacred...even when she is in a foul mood (okay, maybe not then).
I love this quote from the article:
"Parents are always looking for that edge to make their child the smartest but I think the most important thing you can do as a parent is interact with your child. You don't need an iPad or a fancy tablet to make your child learn."
