Yesterday my daughter and I opened up one of her gifts: a Playshifu reading and vocabulary game that hooks up to an iPad. Seeing her use it and understanding how it works almost made me cry. Cry in a way I was so happy to see her playing with something and (hopefully) learning. We have some of the Osmo playsets as well, but up until now it looked like they were gone. I saw their sit and it looks like they are back, so maybe I’ll get the little one back on that.

We are wary of the amount of screen time she gets. We set her iPad for an hour and if we think she should get more, we give it. These learning apps are screen time I am cool with…for only a small amount of time.

Just another moment where I feel some sort of intense emotion, which I good I guess.
