I allow TV. It's on every morning when drop offs happen and I do breakfast. It's on every day at lunch for ten minutes while I put out lunch and its sometimes on at the end of the day for the last one or two kids till pick up. I'd say they get around 30-40mins a day. That being said some days are also no TV as we are outside all day in the spring, summer and fall. No one has ever had a problem with my tv being on.... I've even had no tv watching families and they didn't mind.
