Here the daycare kids do not have access to tv only the once in a while movie on a portable dvd player. They dont miss it because they know they will get to watch when they are at home and that is ok. The older ones ask why the tv isnot there any more and my answer works ....because now we get to talk , play and do more fun stuff with (i then call each daycare child's name) It is not a part of our routine so it isnt expected nor missed.
