We do have TV time each day. I sometimes put it on for a short time while I get lunch ready. For the kids who dont nap, we choose a movie to watch however, very rarely do they ever sit and watch for more then 10 mins. The only time they actually stay on the couch and watch is if its a new one they havent seen before, or if they are tired or not feeling well. At 5pm, if any of the kids are still here, TV goes on while I start my family's dinner. The new little girl I have just started, will watch ANYTHING that is on the TV, today she sat with my hubby and watched the hockey/basketball highlights from lastnight... she's 3... LOL!
