For your blog post this week, I have a bit of a challenge for you. Can you track the amount of time that you spend on screens (computer, tv, ipad, phone, etc.) from Sunday to Thursday. Track the hours of the following table. Once you’ve done this I’d like you to reflect on it.
🎯 Did you know? Experts say that 2 hours of recreational screen time a day is the healthy max for kids. But on average, most kids go way over—some hit 4, 5, even 6 hours a day!
Too much screen time can leave your brain feeling foggy, your body feeling sluggish, and your sleep all messed up. Not to mention, it eats up time you could spend doing something awesome—like playing outside, drawing, reading, or building blanket forts!📝 Your Blog Post Challenge
Once you’ve tracked your time, write a post titled “[Your Name] vs. The Screens!”
