• Back in the day when most 90s kids were coming
  up, media usage was not as prevalent as it is
  now. But 90s kids were the first generation that
  was introduced to the world of computers and
  smartphones early on. Childcare Woods Cross has
  changed drastically since then. Fast forward to
  2021 toddlers and kids are born into homes where
  media usage abounds. This shift is most evident
  from how the average child between the ages of 8
  and 5 spends 64 moments of their day looking at a
  screen! But is it a bad thing? Well, it depends
  on what they are watching, how controlled it is,
  and a whole lot of other elements. Let's talk
  about how screen time could be enlightening for
  children.

What is the Screen Time Like?

• No matter what your toddler is seeing on the
  display you should say in what you want your
  children to interact with. Most children mimic
  what they see and draw values from it. Let's say
  your child is seeing a YouTube movie where Dora
  the Explorer asks them when they have brushed
  their teeth now. This indicates to them this is a
  good thing to do. Nursery rhymes keep kids
  engaged while becoming a positive effect. In case
  the youngster claps their hands when it states
  clap your hands,' their language development
  abilities are being exploited into. Most child
  development facilities have a comprehensive
  multimedia infrastructure, even in which the
  toddlers invest their time viewing educational
  and interactive content.

Are Video Games Okay?

• The answer is yes. There are video games
  appropriate for every age. Your child does not
  necessarily have to begin playing fighting games
  at a young age--in actuality, we urge against it.
  Choose harmless games such as easy jigsaw
  puzzles, racing, racing and block construction.
  These games enable the child to think critically,
  solve problems, and also increase their attention
  span. Video games go a very long way in promoting
  creativity and getting the kid to consider out of
  the box early. If your child is subject to
  display time at their daycare center, make
  certain it's controlled, tracked, and secure. If
  you want to make sure your child is getting the
  most of technology in a safe and healthy way,
