747.2105(a) - Screen Time Activities - Not Used for Under Two
Screen time was observed implementing at the child care home for children under 2 years old. This was corrected when the TV was turned off and the provider was made aware.
In plain English: Child-care homes may not use screen time for children under two. For older children, screen time may only add to other activities, not replace them, and it must be tied to planned learning goals, age-appropriate, no more than one hour a day, free of ads and violence, and not used during meals, snacks, naps, or rest times.
