In this episode, I break down the serious impact of too much screen time on kids—from disrupted sleep and rising anxiety levels to stunted social skills and physical inactivity.
We’ll also look at the life-changing benefits of unplugging, plus simple, actionable strategies to help your child rediscover the world beyond their devices. Here’s what we’ll cover:
1️⃣ The Shocking Reality: Kids today spend an average of 7 hours a day on screens, leading to anxiety, depression, and poor sleep.
2️⃣ Social Media Traps: How constant comparisons and “dopamine hits” weaken motivation and self-esteem.
3️⃣ Physical & Emotional Toll: Why excessive screen time can contribute to obesity, eye strain, and reduced resilience.
4️⃣ The Power of Offline Activities: How riding bikes, exploring nature, and hands-on play foster creativity, independence, and stronger social bonds.
5️⃣ Practical Parenting Hacks: Tips for setting screen-free zones, using parental controls, and guiding kids toward healthier habits.
🎯 What You Can Do:
• Be a Role Model: Limit your own screen time and engage in offline activities with your kids.
• Set Boundaries: Create tech-free zones and curfews; use parental controls to enforce screen limits.
• Encourage Exploration: Offer safe ways for your child to explore the neighborhood, join clubs, and socialize in-person.
