I have a TV in the playroom for rainy days only. the TV upstairs however is on for the kids during drop off and pick up. It has become a great way to get the kids to come in without issues. I usually will say "do you want to come in and watch Napkin Man?" and they happily say bye and run to the couch. The reason for this is so I don't have to run upstairs and leave the kids unattended when the next child comes. Also in the afternoon our routine is wake up, walk to get my daughter from the bus while eating snack, come back and play outside. If the kids are still here when we go in I have no desire for them to go to the playroom and destroy it when i know they are going to be leaving shortly so we will usually watch some TV or play with some quiet activities that i have on my main floor. I would just ask your provider about it. Depending on the age of your child you will quickly be able to tell how much tv they watch because you will hear them talk about what they saw on tv or momick the shows!
