Encouraging your child to engage in outdoor activities is an excellent way to reduce screen time. Summer is the perfect time to get outside and explore nature, so take advantage of it!  love language test    Plan fun outdoor activities such as bike rides, picnics, hiking, swimming or playing games in the park An increase in screen time is directly linked to a decrease in activity levels in our children. By reducing your child's screen time and establishing good screen time habits you can lower their risk of obesity later in life. Like adults, kids only have so many hours in the day.

 have a few for you guys:

  1. Some phones (mine is Samsung) has an Accessibility function that allows you to turn your phone Gray-scale. There is a MASSIVE difference to your brain.

  2. Use your "focus mode" function on your phone.

  3. Use an App blocker on top of your focus mode app.

  4. Put the Apps you don't want to use in a folder, put that folder far from your home screen. Name the Folder "Useless Garbage" so you remind yourself every time you click it.

I have ADD and I'm 100% addicted to those apps, but doing these 4 steps helps guaranteed.

For instance, this study found that those spending six hours or more per day watching screens had a  sign language alphabet  higher risk for depression, and this study found that limiting social media use to 30 minutes per day lead to a "significant improvement in well-being." The type and quality of screen time also play a role. hours of screen time is almost 60% of your available time on any given day. Yes, that is too much. According to research studies, 2–4 hours of daily screen time is the perfect amount. This will help you maintain a healthy balance, both for your physical body (your eyes especially) and your mental state.
