Weaning a child off watching cartoons can be a challenging task, but it's important to remember that it is possible. Here are some tips that might help you in this: 1. Set strict rules for cartoon watching time. For example, allow your child to watch cartoons only at certain times of the day and for a specific amount of time. 2. Offer your child alternatives to cartoons. Suggest games, books, drawing, or other engaging activities that can replace the habit of watching cartoons. 3. Discuss with your child the reasons why they watch so many cartoons. It could be that they are bored, need more attention, or want to escape from problems. Try to find alternative ways to address these issues. 4. Encourage your child for not watching cartoons. Praise them if they spend their time productively or engage in other interesting activities. 5. Be patient and consistent in your actions. Breaking a habit can take time, but it's important not to give up and continue working on it. Remember that every child is unique, so you might need to try several different approaches before finding the one that works for your child.

There will be some tantrums for a while, you'll need to endure it. Spend more time outdoors. Visit places where there are children so that he can distract himself with them, and often invite children over to your place. Try a new game together.
