How much screen time is good for kids?

In 2011, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released a bold recommendation: children under the age of two should not watch any television, and slightly older children should be limited to two hours of screen time per day.

A recent report shows that children’s screen time continues to increase: in 2013, 38 percent of kids under two were found to have used a mobile device for media, compared to 10 percent in 2011. The number of children using mobile devices on a daily basis has more than doubled during this period – from 8 percent to 17 percent.

The AAP has announced that it will be revising its screen time policies this fall to reflect current trends in technology use among U.S. families.
