- · Limit screen time to under two hours a day (not including homework time).
- · Put your child in charge. Set a timer for the 1 or 2 hours and when the timer goes off so does the TV, movie, DS, Game boy or video game.
- Remove TV’s and other electronic devices from your child’s bedrooms.
- Have your child ‘pay’ for their electronic time: 1 hour exercise = 1 hour screen time. No roll-over minutes!
