Is there such a thing as good screen time for under fives?

Parents should aim for no more than one hour of screen time per day for children under the age of five, a new report from the Department of Education has recommended.

And for under twos, the advice is to avoid screens except for shared, interactive use.

But for many parents struggling to manage work, household chores, and other siblings - and even their own screen time - this might seem an impossible, unrealistic task.

So, how do you manage screen time, why does it have a bad impact on children, and what steps can you take to mitigate the problem?

The term "screen time" covers all types of screen use, including computers, tablets, mobile phones, and televisions.
