AAP Schedule of Well-Child Care Visits

Parents know who they should go to when their child is sick. But pediatrician visits are just as important for healthy children.

The Bright Futures/American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) developed a set of comprehensive health guidelines for well-child care, known as the "periodicity schedule." It is a schedule of screenings and assessments recommended at each well-child visit from infancy through adolescence.

Infants and Music Media

Question: I have not allowed screen time for my baby but recently, I showed him recordings of orchestra performances featuring classical music as well as jazz performances, such as Jazz at the Lincoln Center. He gets very excited by certain instruments as well as the orchestra conductors. He will watch the performances for as much as 10 minutes at a time without looking away. Is this something that I need to cut out to prevent developmental harm?

Answer: Thank you for this question -- how great that you are sharing music in this way with your infant! In terms of developmental concerns, it’s important to note that the amount of time that infants spend on screens isn’t the only thing that matters – the quality of what is watched, if the child is watching with a parent/caregiver, and when they’re watching all matter too.
