Last night Scarlet (almost 3 mths) had a bit of a tummy ache and wanted cuddles so we layed down together on the lounge room floor and she noticed the TV for the first time - She wouldn't stop staring at it, Jamie Olvier was on and when DF changed the channel she had a spat so he changed it back and she happily watched Jamie Oliver again...all up she stared at the TV for probably 1.5hrs and we couldn't take her attention away from it without her becoming upset (giving us grumpy looks like 'get your fat head out of my way i'm trying to look at that prettiful thing').

I never had a TV growing up (my mum was a hippy) and ours is very rarely on during the day or while she is awake, which is why i think she never noticed it until last night - Is it bad for her to watch at this age? I mean in a health sense, ie: bad for her eyes, development.

TIA
