As soon as she hears the theme tune to one of her her favourite shows, she's up dancing! Then she stands right up to the screen, pointing at things and trying to use it as a touch screen!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005503 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 17:18:25 +0000 illumina 2005503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually about a minute (at 15 months), though the other day she surprised me by sitting through 3 different shows one after each other (40 minutes in total)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005499 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 17:15:11 +0000 Dandelion 2005499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>D can last forever. But he's 7 and should be doing other things. He's got a 2 hour daily limit while on Christmas break, but normally it's an hour.</p> <p>M doesn't last more than 20 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005489 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 17:09:42 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2005489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DAYS if I let her. DAYS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005446 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:58:16 +0000 mamabolt 2005446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She can do about an hour without getting antsy, which is about all I prefer her to watch anyway so it works out. We watched Frozen with her grandparents over Christmas and she couldn't make it to the end without getting the wiggles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005442 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:56:36 +0000 yoursilverlining 2005442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on how much she likes what's on! For Frozen, she will sit and watch the entire movie. For something less beloved, she sits still for less time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005426 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:41:21 +0000 blackbird 2005426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It really depends on how she's feeling-when she was sick last week, she just sat and watched all day while cuddling on us. This morning I cleaned out for the fridge for almost 3 episodes and she mostly watched but also played with puzzles and then came to "help" me. I've been so sick all week, she's had more Mickey time than I care to know about LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005424 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:39:13 +0000 autumnlove 2005424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO 1 can sit 15ish minutes. LO 2 can last 5-10 on a good day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005423 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:38:55 +0000 reverie 2005423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we do mostly no screen time based on his age 18 months -- which I guess works b/c when I try and cheat b/c we're all sick with the plague, he has no interest anyway. It's good and bad! Sometimes momma would like a break! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-can-you-lo-sit-still-with-a-tvmovie#post-2005422 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:37:49 +0000 DillonLion 2005422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO used to hate television but since she turned two she has been a lot more interested in it. </p> <p>She really likes Daniel Tiger and Curious George, so she will sit and watch several episodes if we let her, although I really try to avoid that if possible. She sat there for an hour once when DH and I were both milling around the house doing chores before I realized! </p> <p>I'm wondering if she would watch a movie at a theater, but she would probably get antsy too fast. </p> <p>How about your LO? Do they have a long attention span for screens? </p>
