Screen-smart eyes for growing minds 👓📱
From online classes to cartoons and games, kids spend more time on screens than ever — and long sessions can leave young eyes feeling tired.
The good news? One simple habit makes a big difference: the 20·20·20 rule.
👁️ Every 20 MINUTES → take a short break
📏 Look 20 FEET away → something far across the room
⏱️ For 20 SECONDS → let the eyes relax
A few more easy wins:
✅ Keep screens at a comfortable distance
✅ Encourage regular outdoor play
✅ Make sure study areas are well-lit
