I limit screen time, too but allow it for “school” stuff – my 10 year old writes books and stories on the iPad. All that to say, I think reading can be an exception to screen time if it’s reading a book. But, you’ll have to find what works best for your family. Love to hear how it goes!

I love this list! Thank you so much. My daughter is definitely the picky reader in our family. I wanted to ask your opinion on the kindle (or iPad) for a 6-year old. I have been really trying to limit my kids’ screen use and wonder if I’m opening a can of worms offering reading on the computer. I guess I also just love a “real” book, so I am resistent! 🙂 Would love your thoughts.
