We initially took away screen time as a sort of punishment for my son’s behavior but we soon saw that no screen time really made a huge difference and brought back our sweet guy. My husband and I decided that we wanted to seriously limit screen time in our home after seeing our oldest son become more defiant and talking back on a regular basis. The games are fun, the boys are engaged and I love that I can implement time limits on their use, but it’s still technically “screen time”. Don’t get me wrong-we love our Leap Frog Epic and Leap Pad Platinum. We try very hard to avoid movies and screen time the entire trip and encourage learning fun, but as technology advances, more and more of the educational toys are essentially little tablets with games. With family all over the country, our vacations are filled with long drives making fun memories.
