how to keep mobile away from child
My child does not eat without a mobile.
My child is glued to the mobile all day
What can you do?
This question is asked of myself also because I also come across this problem
How much mobile do I use?
If I am holding a gadget in my hand, I will not be able to tell my child to keep the mobile away.
The irony is that I have to come on the Mobile and tell this to stay away from the mobile
See the irony !! Technology is good
Technology is very good
But how you balance that technology in your life is very important
Why it's Important
1. Screen time limits:
Excessive screen time can affect children's physical and mental health.
2. Safety concerns:
Mobiles can be a distraction, leading to accidents or injuries.
3. Social skills development:
Face-to-face interaction is crucial for social skills development.
Here are some tips
1. Make rules -
Do not snatch the phone away from the child. You will not get the phone; this is not going to work.
You have to set some rules which also you have to abide by you also have to follow those rules.
So, sometimes in your daily routine, make a point that no screen time, no mobile, make such a role model that you too will follow!! It’s difficult, but impossible not at all
2. Story Books -
It’s very important, think of that time when mobiles were not there, when there were no screens, how mothers made their children feed and play.
Because, when you are feeding the child with the mobile in hand, the child hardly knows what he is eating, because while eating, the child must know what he is eating, and he must feel the food.
3. Outdoor games
It is important to make a habit for kids to play outside. You can also use this as a reward, that if the child doesn’t use their mobile for an hour, you will let them play outside.
It is crucial to establish a proper timetable.
Many times, parents use a mobile as a reward, or a babysitter also gives a phone in case she is tired and the child is not listening, but that is not the correct method.
4. Art and crafts:
Engage children in creative activities like drawing, painting, or crafting.
5. Board games:
Play board games or puzzles that promote social interaction and cognitive development.
6. Cooking or baking:
Engage children in simple recipes, teaching them about measurements and following instructions.
