Children using phones too much makes many parents have headaches. Accordingly, there are a few methods that parents can apply to help children have time to rest and temporarily leave the phone screen.
Spend quality time with your child
After a busy working or studying day, parents should spend more time with their children. Reading books, playing games or chatting together will help parents understand their children's thoughts, interests and concerns. Spending quality time together also helps children reduce the time spent using technology items, which can easily affect their psychology and health.
Encourage children to play sports
Parents should also encourage and create opportunities for children to play sports regularly. Spend a certain amount of time each day so that children can run and play outdoors such as playing football, cycling, swimming... both helping to strengthen physical strength and bringing a comfortable spirit.
Set phone usage time limits
Parents should also not completely forbid their children from using phones, but need to clearly set limits on usage time during the day. For example, children can use phones about 1 hour before bedtime and be controlled by adults to help ensure content access is safe and suitable for each age group of children.
