When should I introduce screen time to my toddler?

Most parents in the community introduced screen time after the second birthday, starting with low-stimulation shows like Ms Rachel, Daniel Tiger, or Peppa Pig for about 15-20 minutes per sitting. Key tips: switch off auto-play, choose episode lengths that match your desired screen time, let the child turn off the TV themselves, and avoid overstimulating shows like Cocomelon or Blippi. If your child is not asking for it, there is no rush to introduce it.
