Kids may think they can spend as much time as they want on their screens once summer break arrives.
But, Dr. Gina Robinson, a pediatrician for Cleveland Clinic Children’s, advises parents to keep some restrictions in place. “It’s OK to relax the rules some, but you don’t want to end up with kids who are just looking at a screen for 10 hours a day, and it’s easy to do that,” she said. “I think we have to encourage kids to be more active, even just outside in their neighborhoods.”Not to mention, it’s good for younger kids to use their imaginations while playing versus depending on a screen for entertainment.There’s also the option of using parental controls and screen limits if needed.
Robinson said research continues to show how screen time can impact kids, not only with things like imagination, but the content kids are watching can also be overstimulating and may affect their attention span long-term.
