A survey of parents found that among 1,000 children aged 0-5, the probability of playing with a smartphone was as high as 80%. The age of children playing mobile phones shows a low trend, and nearly one-third of children who start playing mobile phones at the age of 3. Nowadays, hundreds of mobile phones have rich functions, and most families are using mobile phones. However, while mobile phones bring convenience to everyone, they also bring small troubles to family parenting.
When some parents take their babies, in order to make the babies happy, they will take their mobile phones and put cartoons for the babies to see. Occasionally, he will play games and sing with the baby, let the child participate in it, and make the baby laugh.
The number of times this is more, but there may be a serious consequence that the child treats the mobile phone as his own small toy, and always tries to manage his parents to play with the mobile phone. Once the parents don't give, the child may question: "Mom, why can't I play with my mobile phone?" ”
Especially for children under the age of 2-6 who are in the kindergarten stage, parents should accompany their children to read and write, cultivate their children's hands-on ability, train them in scientific enlightenment thinking, and help develop their brains. But as a result, a careless child is full of curiosity about the mobile phone, thinking that everything in the mobile phone is particularly interesting.
And some parents still don't think so, mistakenly thinking that the child is small, playing with the mobile phone is not a bad thing, it is up to the child's nature. But often the more this is the case, the easier it is for children to play with mobile phones and clash with their parents. Even, parents do not give the baby mobile phone to play, the child will cry and make trouble.
When my daughter was three and a half years old, she was very clingy, and in order to "throw off the baggage", I took the mobile phone to play with my daughter. Not surprisingly, my daughter was suddenly particularly interested in mobile phones, staring at mobile phones for half an hour and no longer bothering me. At that time, I was busy at work, doing housework at home, and I had to open the computer to do tasks, so I didn't take my daughter's mobile phone playing with her mobile phone too seriously.
But then I found out that as long as my daughter was idle, she would lie on my lap and play with me and ask me for a mobile phone. I realized that I could no longer indulge her to play with her mobile phone, but my daughter asked me: "Mom, why can't I play with my mobile phone?" The first time I was asked, I was dumbfounded.
Oh, yes! I originally sent the mobile phone to my daughter, and now my daughter wants to play, how can I have a reason to refuse? But soon, I summed up the dangers of playing with mobile phones and told my daughter about them one by one.
"Mom, why can't I play with my phone?" The three kinds of harm are great, and they should be told to children
The first hazard: playing with mobile phones affects vision
Children who play with mobile phones frequently have a significant loss of vision. Some research data pointed out that children play mobile phones for 20 minutes continuously, the number of blinks is 7.67 times, and the level of vision will drop to 43.8 degrees, almost myopia. Children who have been playing with mobile phones for a long time, if they are not restrained, their vision is prone to pathological development.
The second hazard: playing with mobile phones affects physical development
Children frequently play mobile phones, may not love to read, children are interested, they lie in a place motionless, staring at the mobile phone screen. In this way, the child's cervical spine is easily deformed or hyperplasiad, which will affect the development of the spine. In addition, children often play mobile phones, the amount of activity is less, and the motor ability is weakened, which may delay the child's growth.
More importantly, the child is in the stage of physical development, bright mobile phone screen, may also reduce the child's melatonin secretion, resulting in children's sleep disorders, interfering with children's daily reading and learning, height and so on.
The third hazard: playing with mobile phones wastes time and affects brain development
Under normal circumstances, a child's brain development does not develop until about 7 years old before it can fully develop. Of course, the situation also varies from person to person, some children have slower brain development, and the brain development is older. This is related to genetic factors, and it is inextricably linked to the way parents cultivate their children.
Children under the age of 6, once they use mobile phones frequently, are likely to not learn too much knowledge. Parents do not help the baby plan the time and carry out brain development training. Then, the child may be affected by some negative, violent, negative and other bad information in the mobile phone, anxiety, overexcitement or sadness and other emotions, which are not conducive to the soundness of the child's autonomic neuroregulation ability, will slow down the child's brain development to the full speed, the child's harm is great.
Summarizing these hazards, 1510 told my daughter. Soon, the daughter was afraid. In her cognitive world, it is not clear that playing with mobile phones will have such a big impact. Even, when I finished saying these words, I asked her again, "Short, wearing myopic glasses, can't sleep, are you afraid of these?" My daughter immediately nodded fiercely, and I handed her the phone, and she didn't dare to answer it again.
If you like this "textbook" way of answering, you can also tell your own children about the dangers of playing with mobile phones. Then, try your best to help your child arrange life, entertainment, and learning. If your child is still playing with their phones, the following methods can help you.
To guide children who are greedy for mobile phones, parents can try these two methods:
The first method: take time to communicate or read with your child
No matter how busy parents are, they must take time to accompany their children, communicate or read more, reduce the time that children play mobile phones, and help children reduce their interest in playing mobile phones. Companionship is the longest confession of affection, and it is also very meaningful to communicate with children and spend time with reading together.
The second method: replace mobile phones with books to cultivate children's interest in knowledge
Helping your child find a "cell phone alternative" and making them fall in love with it is the best way to do it. I used this way to help my daughter get rid of the addiction of playing mobile phones, that is, to prepare a three-dimensional flip book that allowed children to learn popular science knowledge while playing.
I bought several sets for my daughter, and when my daughter was arguing with me to play with her mobile phone, or idle and bored, I put these books in front of my daughter, and her daughter would involuntarily open them and read them.
With the three-dimensional flip through the books, I didn't worry at all about my daughter playing with her phone. Children will consciously grope to read, flip through the picture touch of the pop-up book.
Reading books is better than looking at mobile phones, and mobile phones are more attractive than books, but this book is the opposite, using the child's development characteristics to stimulate children's interest, but also the best way to quit mobile phone addiction.
