Smartphone Addiction: Today, children of all ages are very active with their smartphones, so excessive use of mobile phones can have a bad effect on health.

If you want to explain to the child, when the child is looking at the mobile phone and you explain to him then he will become irritable, so sit him down with you later and try to explain in a calm manner.

Second, children mostly learn from their parents or older siblings, so if you use your mobile phone as little as possible, it will have a good effect on your child. Ensure your child finishes homework, studying, housework before they get on the mobile device. This helps in setting the priorities straight right from a young age.

Kids have a lot of energy and it should be invested effectively. Make sure your kids do something active frequently. Indulge them in mini strolls and stretching exercises every 30 mins.

Children learn more from your actions than your words. They are great observers, and they mimic the habits of parents. It is important to form strict rules in place to abide by. Restricting your smartphone usage time allows you extra time to spend with your child.
