Limit Screen Time

With all the technology around us, it is really easy to spend 3 to 4 hours in front of a screen every day. With the sedentary time adding up, your child’s chance to develop unhealthy weight gain is increased so try to limit your child’s use of the following to 2 hours or less every day: TV, computer (not including homework), videogames, and hand-held devices.
Here are some simple tips to help reduce screen time:
• Determine how many minutes your child is actually spending on screen time.
• Set a timer
• Remove TVs and other electronic devices from their bedrooms.
• No snacking in front of the screen
