The rise of digital technology brings countless learning and development opportunities for children. Children become proficient with high-tech devices and can even open up opportunities to explore the world on their own. However, children still do not have enough awareness about this world, so they can easily see misleading content or get caught up in online content. Therefore, parents should monitor the content their children are allowed to watch, and at the same time set a schedule to limit children's eyes being glued to the screen. At the same time, parents should increase their children's exposure to intellectual toys and outdoor activities.
Create opportunities for your baby to think even when they are glued to the screen
When children are glued to the screen, they will put 100% of their attention on the content being shown without thinking about anything else. Parents can interact with children by chatting and asking about favorite characters and storylines. Children will be extremely proud when they are young and can answer adults' questions. At the same time, this can stimulate curiosity and creativity in children. I started asking questions about why and diligently searched for answers in the movie.
Children are glued to the screen all day long, causing headaches for parents
The content on social networks is always full of novelty and keeps children glued to the screen all day long. Forcibly separating your child from electronic devices will make him become frustrated, upset and find many ways to get the device. Instead, parents can use electronic devices to help their children learn. Select content related to education or cartoons that provide a lot of interesting information. Make sure that even when your child is glued to the screen, he or she can still learn many good things.
If parents want their children to learn while holding the phone or tablet, they can download fun learning applications. Child-friendly graphics and fun sounds will pique your child's interest, helping them learn without getting bored.
Play fun role-playing games with your children
Children have a lot of energy and love to play. Don't let electronic devices take away your child's opportunity to have fun. Parents can chat to find out why their children are glued to the screen for so long, who their child's favorite character is... and then transform into characters from that cartoon to attract their children to play. together.
Children will be reminded of the character's actions and dialogue. Parents can make animal simulation sounds to make their children more excited. When acting out, children will also develop situational handling skills when having to solve problems posed by their parents. This activity not only helps children stay active both physically and mentally, but also helps the whole family have a good laugh, reducing the time children spend glued to the screen.
Join your children in magical fairy tales
Finally, being immersed in electronic devices brings countless harmful effects to your child's development. To minimize the time children spend glued to the screen, parents need to set a schedule for when their children can watch cartoons, and actively lead their children to participate in extracurricular activities. Children will be grumpy and uncomfortable at first, but once they get into a routine, they will follow the set schedule.
Toys are what create a beautiful childhood
Unlike electronic devices, toys are considered close friends of children. Children can freely create stories with toys and confide in toys like friends. Furthermore, high-quality toys will not harm children's health, and children can keep toys as souvenirs even when they are adults.
Toys are a child's closest friend in childhood
Toys help children a lot in laying the foundation for sustainable development later. Children can develop their imagination, creativity, communication skills... thanks to role-playing toys and intellectual toys. The delicate, aesthetically designed appearance also helps children have a more accurate perception of colors. Parents should invest in genuine toys for their children when they are 1-3 years old , so that children receive the greatest benefits from using toys, and also to prevent children from being glued to screens early.
It will be difficult to stop children from being glued to the screen once they have discovered the novelty of online content. Parents should be patient, using both toys and outside activities to guide their children's attention, all for the healthy development of their "little angels".
