My daughter is approaching 3 and my wife has suggested a tablet either as a birthday or Christmas present, and I’m a bit hesitant. It’d be great for long trips, but I think as a day-to-day thing it might be a distraction. It’d get Spidey and Friends off the telly though. How and when did you handle this?

    As late as possible, hold off as long as you can, screens are terrible for early years brain development. We have a tablet for long car journeys,and my eldest has just got his first phone at 11 years old because he started high school.
