Screen-time FAQs
-
Time spent looking at screens per day, obviously.
But how much should we limit it to for specific age groups? Well that’s the thing, no one actually knows because it is drastically influenced by the quality and type of content consumed.
-
Because according to our most advanced early brain development- and behavioral science we are being constantly programmed and reprogrammed by what we see, hear, smell, touch and taste. This impacts kids wholly, adults partly.
As most of us operate primarily based on visual and audio input, it should be top priority to make sure our kids as well as ourselves get “positively programmed” by the content we consume and interact with.
The education system failed us, but we can make up for it.
-
Reducing and/or eliminating screen-time altogether seems to be the goal of most parents today, but it would be more important to first change the type of content kids are exposed to.
It will be much easier to reduce/optimize screen-time (if it’s too much) only after appropriate content is consumed exclusively.
-
Our app will only feature highly curated, age-appropriate, educational and engaging content plus whatever else you as a parent (and others you authorize) would like your kid(s) to see.
It will monitor and keep track of screen-time, types of content consumed and provide detailed reports of your kids’ development and even their interests.
It will feature content and games that will require action/engagement with the physical world. It will engage your child’s senses with captivating, nature-inspired visuals and sounds, fostering calm and grounded states.
-
You install the app on your phone (and on another device if you wish your kid(s) to have their own). Enjoy the simple interface, where they only see and interact with what you and others you authorize share. Free and paid plans.
Don’t worry, you don’t need a degree to run this, we’ll recommend age-appropriate content and games to approve for your kid all the time.
It doesn’t have to be that hard to be in control, to have piece of mind that screen-time can actually be beneficial.
You’ll receive regular reports and updates about progress, engagement, interests and consumed content.
3-5 year olds
Play-Based Learning is Crucial:
Content must be deeply embedded in play, imaginative scenarios, and exploration. Children learn best through doing and pretending at this age. Games and activities should feel like play and entertainment first, education second.
Developing Foundational Social-Emotional Skills
Building Pre-Literacy and Pre-Numeracy Skills
Short Attention Spans and Visual Engagement
Gross and Fine Motor Skill Development through Interaction (tapping, swiping, simple drag-and-drop)
5-7 year olds
Transitioning to More Structured Learning (but still Playful):
Incorporating slightly more structured learning elements while maintaining playful and engaging formats. Introduce basic curriculum concepts (early literacy, math, science introductions) in game-like and story-driven ways.
Expanding Social Skills and Peer Interaction Understanding
Developing Foundational Academic Skills Systematically
Growing Attention Spans and Narrative Engagement
Developing Early Problem-Solving and Logical Thinking Skills (puzzles, simple logic games)
Fostering Independent Learning and Exploration: encourage self-directed learning and exploration, offering choices within learning paths and opportunities for deeper dives into areas of interest. Provide tools and resources that allow children to pursue topics independently, within safe boundaries.
Developing Critical Thinking and Questioning
Exploring More Nuanced Social-Emotional and Ethical Concepts
Building Deeper Knowledge in Academic Domains
Promoting Application of Knowledge to Real-World Contexts
7-9 year olds
