I've got to be honest, with my eldest we did no screen time until about age 2, and then just small things, even now she isn't allowed to watch more than about 30 minutes and not every day. Plus we don't have a tablet etc so no games.
However, I don't talk or preach about it, I don't think there's a right or a wrong way, that was our choice but having had a second child he's definitely been exposed to screens already! And I'm not sweating it, kids will be fine either way.
They do also seem to spend a lot on days out which is great if you can afford it but not doable for a lot of families.
