Screen use in children

Screen use in children and situations that parents should pay attention to.

SITUATIONS THAT MAY BE ENCOUNTERED

  • Don’t be a passive receiver
  • Decreased physical activity
  • Musculoskeletal disorders
  • eating problems
  • sleep problems
  • Negative impact on language development
  • Exposure to inappropriate content

HOW CAN IT BE FOLLOWED?

  • Face-to-face interaction plays a very important role in early childhood. We should communicate with our children at “eye level”.
  • Screen use should only be used for educational purposes at very short intervals under parental supervision.
  • While one parent takes care of his personal affairs, the other parent can spend time with the child.
  • In order to complete our work, we should not give our child the screen and stay in the background.
