In response to your feedback, here are some tips for monitoring screen time:

 

Are your children having too much screen time?

There are many positives to using devices, including enhancing learning experiences, facilitating social interaction and improving literacy and numeracy.

However, too much screen time can have negative consequences such as: eye strain, headaches and pain in the postural muscles, difficulty falling asleep, poor concentration, lower impulse control and even low self-esteem.

Screen time includes the use of phones, TV, computer screens and tablets.

It is good to find a balance, so that you can continue to use devices in a positive way, without the negative effects.
