“» BETTER LIFE Starting the day right: Studies show that about 70% of kids jump into screen time in the morning, but starting the day with screens as soon as their eyes open isn't the best idea. If video games are a morning habit, try switching things up with other activities like reading a short story or building with Lego. This way, screens don't take over their day from the get-go. After school: After a long day at school, kids need a little downtime. Letting them spend 30 minutes on an educational app can be a great way to transition from school to home. Tech for learning: Technology can be a super helpful tool for homework and learning. Use it to help with research or practise skills. For example, if your child is learning to read, try apps that read stories aloud and highlight the words. If they're working on maths, find games that make learning numbers fun and interactive. Family tech time: Evenings are perfect for family tech activities. Whether it’s playing a multiplayer game, watching a nature documentary, or exploring an educational app together, it’s a great way to bond and learn as a family. Plus, it lets you keep an eye on what your child is watching and guide them towards good content. Winding down: As bedtime gets closer, it's important to start winding down tech use. About an hour before bed, swap the screen for a book. Reading together can be a calming way to end the day and helps your child develop a love for books. Encouraging creativity: Encourage your child to create rather than just consume content. Look for apps that let them draw, compose music, or even code simple games. This makes screen time more productive and boosts their creativity and problem-solving skills. Lead by example: Lastly, be a good role model. Your child learns by watching you, so show them how to balance technology with other parts of life. A WORD ON SOCIAL MEDIA FOR CHILDREN Social media can be tricky for young children. While kids under seven typically do not need to be on social media, the rise of digital connectivity makes it important to set clear guidelines if they are exposed to it indirectly through family or friends. Most social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, have a minimum age requirement of 13 years. Children under seven should not have their own accounts. If social media is used for family sharing, ensure strict privacy settings and supervision. =
