If the elderly take care of their children at home, watch mobile phones and watch TV, it should be more frequent. This is not entirely their fault, because children have developed this habit, and when their parents are away, children can always find the weakness of the elderly. Under their soft grinding and hard foam, the old man can't help but let the children watch.
But once this bad habit is formed, it is not so easy to change it back.
Although parents know that showing mobile phones to their children has many adverse effects, which will affect their vision, sleep, attention and mental state, as long as it has the benefit of calming children's noise, most people still choose to block their children's mouths with electronic products and let them rest.
A while ago, a parent tried to persuade her daughter not to play mobile phones, because playing for too long would hurt her eyes, but her daughter wouldn't listen and she didn't believe it. So the mother drew two dark circles on her eyes while her daughter was sleeping to scare her.
My daughter was really frightened when she got up and saw her appearance. Now she is also very temperate in watching mobile phones.
This method can make children aware of the dangers of playing mobile phones and has a certain deterrent effect, but it may not be applicable to every child. After all, older children may know their parents' tricks at once, and the scene will be embarrassing then.
Nowadays, whether it is early education or school homework, it is often inseparable from the software on the mobile phone. It is really unrealistic for children not to touch it. However, as parents, what should be done to make children use mobile phones correctly, not only to let children learn what they should learn, but also to control their time without affecting their normal work and rest.
If you want children to use electronic products correctly, you must first know how long children of different ages have used electronic products.
1, service time
1) For children under 2 years old, it is not recommended to use any electronic products. At this time, the baby's eye development is not fully mature, and premature use of electronic products will cause great harm to the eyes.
2) Children over 2 years old should not exceed 2 hours a day at most, and it is best not to exceed 15-20 minutes each time. They should take a rest every once in a while, look at the distance and relax their eye muscles.
Step 2 use distance
1) Using a mobile phone:
Look at the phone at a distance of more than 5 times the diagonal of the screen.
2) watch TV:
It's best to stay as far away from the TV as possible. If the screen is small, it is easy to cause visual fatigue.
1, clear rules with children
This rule should be set in advance. Don't spend more than a few minutes each time you play with your mobile phone or watch ipad. It's time to stop. Don't tell the child it's over when he is having fun. No one wants to change, even if he agrees to play, he may cheat. So, be sure to say it in advance and stop when you arrive.
In addition, it is also necessary to tell children when to watch mobile phones or TV, such as when to watch it every night, and not after 10 or 1 1 at night. It is particularly important to note that you can't watch your mobile phone in the dark, which will do more harm to your child's eyes.
In addition to the specified time, the place to use electronic products should also be agreed in advance. For example, TV and mobile phones can only be watched in the living room, and the room is a place to sleep and rest. You can't bring your cell phone in, just like you can't watch your cell phone in class.
It is also necessary to standardize that children should not watch mobile phones when eating, and develop good eating habits from an early age. Eating and watching mobile phones will not only affect appetite, but it is easy to be considered impolite to eat with elders and leaders after getting used to it. These are all things that parents need to pay attention to in their daily life.
2. Let children have autonomy under the premise of obeying the rules.
After parents and children have established the rules, other things can be controlled by children, that is, when he can play mobile phones, parents should not interfere too much with children, let him eat fruit for a while, let him do his homework for a while, and don't inadvertently break the agreement between you and children. Within the prescribed scope, the child can completely control it, let him know that you are a man of your word and he must do the same.
3. Mobile phones are not entertainment, but learning props.
Let children treat mobile phones correctly. The mobile phone itself is actually neutral, and there is no difference between good and bad. We can regard the mobile phone as a tool for reading, listening to books and studying. Don't think that children must be playing games by watching their mobile phones. If children use mobile phones to improve their learning efficiency, this is not bad.
Usually, you can share some software that can improve learning efficiency with your children, such as tomato alarm clock and task list. These can help your child better define his study plan, use his time more rationally, and let him get rid of the game and not indulge in it.
Step 4 "deal" with children
We can use the time of using electronic products to make a "deal" with our children. If parents want their children to finish their homework more actively, they can earn five minutes of game time by doing some extra exercises, but it should be stipulated that the total time of using electronic products every day is unchanged. If you use electronic products for more than one day, the extra time will be delayed until the next day, and so on.
Similarly, if children don't finish their homework or do what they promised their parents, they should also be punished, deducting 5 minutes 10 minutes of game time, so if children want to play mobile phones, they must earn it through their own efforts.
However, these rules must be agreed by both parties, and you can't do whatever you want. This will make the child think that you are fooling around and can't improve his enthusiasm for time.
Step 5 change the scene
If parents don't want their children to face the mobile phone for a long time, they can also change the way. For example, they can watch English cartoons in the form of listening, which can not only exercise their listening, but also relax their eyes. Parents can make this suggestion because children often watch the same episode over and over again.
Or you can project the mobile phone on the TV or the wall, so that the screen is large, which can reduce the visual fatigue of children.
Step 6 interact with children
If children watch some interactive videos, parents may wish to watch them with their children, so that you can share more topics with each other, and you can also evaluate what children watch to see whether it is in line with their age, whether they can understand the content and whether there is any bad information to hide.
Step 7 lead by example
Parents usually go home from work and try to use their mobile phones as little as possible. Don't let children feel that their mobile phone is like your organ, so they will wonder why you would rather face the mobile phone than accompany him, and he will naturally be interested in your mobile phone.
What needs special attention is that when eating, parents should put down their mobile phones and have a good meal. They can't get into the bad habit of watching mobile phones while eating, otherwise children will follow suit. Even if you want to stop the child in the future, he will say, "You are different." Make you speechless.
If you don't want your child to be addicted to mobile phones, you have to do it yourself, otherwise why should you let your child do it?
When dealing with electronic products, we should not treat them with extreme attitude. We should not always think that they are bad, which will have a bad influence on children's health and eyes. We also don't think that they are very good and can free their parents' hands. As soon as something happens, they will throw their mobile phones to their children and ignore everything.
Parents should take the essence, discard the dross, master the secret of rational use of mobile phones, and let their children improve themselves while using them, so as to play their role.
