I just saw this plush thing that's designed to protect iPhones/iPods while kids play with them, and it got me wondering about this very same topic. My friends have kids less than two who know how to work the iPod, and I have such conflicting feelings about it. On the one hand, it makes me cringe, but on the other, it's the world in which we're living. I would love to see a follow-up post about this!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17370673028526668464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7877883538043307085.post-2996495276552470302010-10-07T19:12:02.990-04:002010-10-07T19:12:02.990-04:00I have a droid phone (new to this stuff myself) an...I have a droid phone (new to this stuff myself) and LOVE IT. I have used it for maps when I get lost, I have used it for some games to calm a screaming child and on occasion to enjoy reading thru my email before I get home...<br />I have thought the same thing about electronic time for my kids and this is the world we live in. I think that the keys is moderation in all things- including that. Usually the extreme of either doesn't have the intended affect anyway, plus it's biblical- to be balanced :)- So, a little may be okay.

The Bug already loves playing games or looking at pictures on my iPhone and I dread what's coming. But you make a valid point. It's the times. And at what point are we doing a disservice?Erin Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16661264727498626285noreply@blogger.com
