Not to be (too) flippant, but this is your first child I assume?
I have no particularly good advice for you other than it'll work itself out, and it's probably just a phase. When kids go to school, a lot of things change.
Also, it is often a point of pride for parents to talk about restricting screen time, how much their child reads, plays piano, is a star athlete, etc.
Parents often exaggerate to score points. :). This says more about parents and less about children.
Personally, I don't think devices are either good or bad. Perhaps your child actually loves some show and it gives them comfort. One thing to do is sit there and watch with them, and try to engage in their world. Ask them about what they like in the shows, etc.
Childhood is so fleeting and you will miss it before it's gone!
