When Has Your Child Had Too Much Screen Time?

When Has Your Child Had Too Much Screen Time?

Whilst the team at Game Vault love a good video game party, we also recognise that with the prevalence of smartphones, tabs and TVs, families are now incorporating screen time into their daily lives.

Childrens apps inspire a passion for learning and creativity in our kids. However, like everything in life, too much can be a bad thing.

Excessive screen use can lead to sleeping problems, behavioral issues and headaches.

Here we outline some of the most common warning signs that you should set your child new limits on their screen time.

1) Your child wants to go on their device first thing in the morning after they wake

2) Your child complains or throws a tantrum when you tell them it’s time to come off of their device

3) You’ve caught your child sneaking in time on their device

4) Your child seems to only laugh or smile when using their device

5) Your child is constantly asking to use their device, wanting more and more screen time

6) Your child is tired throughout the day or isn’t getting to sleep easily

7) Your child complains of headaches

If your child has shown signs of any of the above, now would be a good time re-evaluate how your child uses their device and look at cutting down on their screen time.

If you are looking to reward your child or throw them a party, then contact Game Vault to find out more about our game truck’s safe gaming environment.
