Setting clear rules for healthy screen use is essential in today's digital world. By limiting access to screens at mealtimes and before bedtime, and by setting specific time limits, parents can promote quality family time and encourage diversification of activities. What's more, carefully monitoring the content to which children are exposed, choosing age-appropriate programs and games, helps ensure an educational and enriching digital experience. 1, record 1, English, - healthy%20screen%20use
