I'm thinking about that as well. My one year old girl of course has no screen time at all, but she sees us using it and is already interested in the device. We sometimes let her play with it when it's turned off. We also have no tv, only a beamer we can use when she's sleeping or away. Maybe once or twice a week we watch news on an ipad during lunch or supper with her at the table.

I am planning to only introduce screen based devices after several years. First would be offline media like comics, later maybe videos. Access to the internet should be highly regulated, i am myself disgusted by what i see on (a-)social media. So when she's gonna use it i will block all social media for my whole network for a long time. I myself have stopped using it ages ago and i have to get my partner to accept that. But i think there is a huge difference between getting data from the internet and social media. Also playing a game might be a thing, but _never ever_ a free to play game, they are the worst and only live off the addiction they are creating in the early game time.

The only device i'd like to give to her pretty early is a ebook reader, but i dont really think she's gonna love it ;-) Lets see whether i will be able to get her reading early on.
