Technology is an integral part of modern life, but managing screen time is crucial for children’s health and well-being. Excessive screen time can affect sleep, physical activity, and social skills, so it’s essential to strike a balance.
Parents can set screen time limits based on age and encourage children to use devices for educational purposes. For instance, apps that teach math, reading, or problem-solving can be both fun and beneficial. Family rules, such as no screens during meals or before bedtime, help maintain a healthy balance.
Encouraging alternative activities like reading, outdoor play, or creative hobbies keeps children engaged without relying on screens. By teaching kids responsible technology use, we prepare them for a digital future while safeguarding their well-being.
