Hello everyone, I’m CiCi Mommy Talks Parenting.

Relatives are probably going crazy this time! The children rested at home on the weekends, and rushed back after work at noon to cook for the children. As a result, the children clamored for mobile phone chargers as soon as they got home. The relative who was cooking was so angry that he immediately threw down his thousands of mobile phones. The child was beaten hard and then knelt down to beg for mercy and vowed never to play with mobile phones again.

Children love to play with electronic products, which is a problem that exists in most families today. First, because the popularity of electronic products is so high today, they are inseparable from their assistance in study, work, and life; second, there are too many charms in electronic products that children cannot resist, and they can easily become addicted as soon as they are played.

How do electronic products "steal" children's eyesight step by step?

Children like to play with electronic products, which are greatly affected by the environment, especially parents who like to play with mobile phones in front of their children since childhood. As a child grows up, electronic products will become an important part of his life, causing more and far-reaching harm:

① The baby's vision development gradually matures with growth and development, until 5-6 years of age, the vision The level is close to that of adult . If you let your children watch various electronic products before this, you are challenging their visual development.

②The smaller the screen, the greater the damage to the baby's vision may be. Especially when babies focus on the screen, it can easily cause visual fatigue and affect eye development.

③The pictures in electronic products are constantly moving. In order to keep up with the speed, the baby's eye muscles will be in a state of tension.

Therefore, CiCi’s mother does not recommend letting children play with mobile phones, iPads or TV for a long time before they are 6 years old.

Affects the baby's eyes' ability to perceive color

When babies are relatively young, it is difficult to distinguish between too many and too small things crowded together. Pictures that many parents look colorful and layered are not so in the eyes of the baby. The younger the baby is, the more he likes to see things with single colors . Too many colors will affect the baby's eyes' perception of colors.

It may be harmful to the baby's physical development

If the baby has often watched electronic products since childhood, especially if the baby often stays at home and does not go out, always watching TV, it will keep them in a quiet state. Unable to effectively consume the calories taken into the body, increases the risk of obesity and may affect physical development .

Electronic products "steal" not only children's eyesight, but also "future"

Electrical assets should be a "tool" for babies, not toys. Exposing children to electronic products too early and often from an early age will not only affect the development of their eyesight, but also quietly steal their learning and thinking abilities, affecting their IQ development.

Limits the development of baby's social skills

The difference between listening to characters' conversations in electronic products and parents chatting directly with their children is: whether there is effective interaction. The information received by children's brains when watching TV is passive information, while the interaction between parents and children is rich interaction and is an important way of learning. children learn new things through language communication and observation during interactions with parents or other children.

Reduce the opportunity for children to think actively

What is learned from the pictures of electronic products is passively accepted by the brain, which cannot prompt the brain to think actively and reduce the enthusiasm for thinking. If the baby is accustomed to this way of receiving knowledge, it will affect the development of learning ability in the future and limit the development of creativity and imagination. Generally speaking, "watching too many electronic products may really make children stupid, which is not conducive to IQ development."

Causes cognitive confusion

Although many video programs are also taken from real life, after some animation processing, they are easier for babies to understand. However, there are still more or less differences between virtual and reality. If the baby finds that the content that sees in electronic products is inconsistent with reality, it will cause cognitive confusion.

Instead of prohibiting children from playing electronic products, parents should do this

As long as the baby is old, he can watch TV and play with mobile phones. There is no need for parents to mechanically set standards for their children, which may be counterproductive. It is the task of parents to make electronic products a kind of life aid and entertainment supplement that can be used instead of being controlled by electronic products.

No. 1: Parents should set an example

Parents who use mobile phones all day long and never take their eyes off their hands should never ask "Why are their children addicted to mobile phones?" You have set a wrong example for your children (showing in front of your children that your mobile phone is fun, interesting, and you can't put it down). It's useless to blame your children.

Parents are a mirror for their children. If you don't want your children to be addicted to electronic products in the future, start "pretending" in front of your children from the moment your baby can interact with you. Control your time playing with mobile phones and spend more time with your baby. .

Second: Control the viewing environment.

Relatively speaking, from the perspective of minimizing damage to the baby's eyes, if you let the baby watch electronic products, it is best to choose a TV with a larger screen and pay attention to the viewing distance. Generally speaking, the most appropriate distance between babies and electronic devices is at least 5 times the diagonal of the screen. In addition, parents should limit the time they spend looking at electronic products to 15-30 minutes a day.

Third: Take your baby for more outdoor activities

Parents should always believe in one truth: if you are willing to play with your child and take him out to play, he will never be willing to stay at home all day playing with his mobile phone or watching TV. The interaction between people will definitely make children like it more. Parents should take their children into nature more often and conduct interesting parent-child activities. Even if such children are exposed to electronic products, they will not be addicted easily, which is very effective.
