Any toddler has his/her eyes in the developmental stage and their time on computer should not be encouraged. Also it will affect their play time and their exercising. Sitting too long in a same place will affect their blood circulation and in due course, it may paralyze their circulatory system also. So,the toddlers should not be on the computer.

I think that toddlers can learn basic computer skills by playing games on the internet. Any game should be age appropriate and the child should be supervised at all times.

No. They shouldn't be. Sitting in front of the television and/or the computer all the time is really not good for children. They need to be away from the screens which can strain eyes. At that age they should be active and playing to promote healthy growth and to prevent obesity.
