Same here, we've made it to 3 now without any screens and our house looks like a children's book library, our daughter is bilingual and ahead of her age cohort. Of course that's again a correlation/causation thing, but being able to connect with her over reading books, answering questions (so.many. questions...) has been wonderful. She'll be hit with digital everything soon enough, so why rush it indeed. At the moment she's doing video calls with the grandparents and very occasionally looking at photos or animals on the phone, and that's it.
