📱 Screen Time Tips for Healthy Growing Minds 💙

Screens are a part of everyday life, but too much screen time can affect sleep, learning, physical activity, and social development.

Here are a few healthy habits for families:
👶 Under 18 months: Avoid screen time except for video chatting.
📚 18–24 months: Choose high-quality educational content and watch together.
🧒 Ages 2–5: Limit screen time to about 1 hour per day of quality programming.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 School-age children: Create consistent limits and encourage plenty of outdoor play, reading, family time, and sleep.

💡 Try these simple ideas:
✅ Keep mealtimes screen-free.
✅ Turn off screens at least 1 hour before bedtime.
✅ Be a role model by limiting your own screen time.
✅ Encourage active play every day.

Small changes can make a big difference in your child's health and development!
