My kids are 5 and 6, they can do stuff to help around the house in exchange for screen time. They start with none.

Thanks for sharing! Is there a maximum time cap for them?

I usually don't let it get over two hours but I've made exceptions. I do have limitations on what they watch, too; it has to either have a plot or teach them something. Bonus points for something like the Wild Kratts (big hit at Chateau Bizzle), which has both. I don't let them watch streamers or like kid's YouTubers at all, ever, no exceptions.
