My baby is obsessed with all the programs the cable channel in Metro Manila, BabyTv, offers. What's the safest number of hours (or minutes) that I can let her watch?

Screen time should be kept at about an hour or two per day, and in scattered intervals. I believe it's the prolonged exposure that is harmful. There are a lot of benefits kids can get from technology :) I agree with Rosielyn. Being adept at using technology aids their mental, social, and motor skills, too.
