Can 2-year-old baby watch TV and mobile phone? How old can baby watch mobile phone

When a child is crying, the parents will turn on the mobile phone and TV to let the child watch in order to save time, and the child's attention will be temporarily calmed down. Is it really good to use mobile phone as a magic device to coax children? Baby 2 years old can see mobile phone?

In fact, we all know the harm of children's long-term contact with electronic equipment, such as affecting vision, not conducive to emotional development, not conducive to the development of children's social ability, etc. However, in real life, it is very difficult to completely prevent children from watching TV.

Parents will have to hand their children over to TV or mobile phones for various reasons. What's more, living in this Internet age, it's obviously unrealistic to keep children completely away from electronic devices.

So, here comes the question. We can't prevent children from watching TV and mobile phones, and we don't want to make children's development be negatively affected. What can we do to solve this dilemma?

Editor today from the following aspects to talk about the solution to this problem.

When can I see it?

In principle, we don't recommend watching TV for children under 2 years old.

But after all, principles are principles. In our real life, it will be more or less difficult to practice them. Also mentioned before, it is unrealistic for children of this era to ban blindly.

What's more, if the child is two or three years old, he doesn't know what mobile phones and iPads are, what are the popular cartoons on TV and so on. He doesn't know whether Princess Aisha is Chinese or foreign. He doesn't know which brother of page is George or qiaohu.

There is no common topic between children and their peers, which will also have a negative impact on their interpersonal communication.

So, since it can't be completely eliminated, is there any good compromise?

When appropriate, the methods are as follows:

Within 2 years old

For babies under the age of 2, we try to keep the time of watching TV within 15-30 minutes every day. As for how to spend these tens of minutes, we must cherish our own needs.

Over 2 years old

For babies over 2 years old, the cumulative time of watching TV every day can not exceed 2 hours. It should be noted that it is better not to let children watch continuously, and let them rest every 15 minutes, so as to reduce the impact of watching TV on children's vision to a certain extent.

That's why a lot of cartoons have only ten minutes, just to give children some rest time.

What do you show your children?

Since we can watch TV for our children within a certain time range, what kind of TV programs should we watch for our children? As for the choice of TV programs, we should pay attention to two points: one is to consider the characteristics of children's visual ability; the other is whether the guidance given to children by watching TV content is correct.

Visual ability

Children's eyesight is still developing. Generally, it is only when they are 8-10 years old that their eyesight level is close to that of adults. If too young children are exposed to electronic products too early, it is invisible that they are challenging their eyesight. And the smaller the screen, the bigger the challenge, the more likely the child is to develop visual fatigue. In addition, fast moving video and over dense images will also cause children's eye muscle fatigue and affect their vision development.

So, if you want to show children programs or videos, then TV, iPad and mobile phone are better than big screen TV.

TV content

Because children's ability to accept and imitate is too strong, and at the same time their ability to distinguish is poor, they are easily guided by the ideas conveyed by the program. For example, in a recent news that Xiaobian saw, a 6-year-old girl was learning the plot of cartoon and jumped down from the 13th floor with a little umbrella. Fortunately, the little girl was not in danger.

Another example is an 8-year-old boy who imitates the plot of "kidnap roast sheep" in the cartoon, binds two young friends to a tree and burns them severely. There are so many news like this, so you should remember the following principles about the content of TV for children:

&Violence and adult content should be prohibited.

&To avoid display programs containing tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc.

&The advertising of snacks and desserts should be moderate.

In addition to these, there are many other details that need to be paid more attention to. Xiaobian will not list them one by one.

I hope you can understand that since we can't make our children refuse electronic products completely. So, the bottom line is to control the content of the program for children.

What do you do when your children watch TV?

Xiaobian thought, surely many parents feel that this question is not easy to answer? When children watch TV, of course, I can either work or work overtime or enjoy the rare quiet time. What else can I do?

But in fact, that's not right!

Because, after all, electronic devices are not children's' nannies', nor can they be parents' substitutes'. We can't treat electronic devices as' child charmers', and then we can be free and easy shopkeepers. When you give your child to the TV or mobile phone, it will hinder the communication between you and your child to a certain extent, and at the same time, it will make the development of your child's social ability difficult.

So when a child watches TV, you do this:

&Bull; at the moment of watching the TV Festival, you can set up a small game or task for your child if conditions permit. For example, let the children remember what the first sentence of a certain character was when he appeared. There are several different characters in the program. Don't look down on such a small game, it can exercise children's memory and language ability.

&Bull; while your child is watching TV, you can talk about the animated characters or story lines you are watching. Of course, whether you are really interested or not, you have to pretend to have a special resonance between you and your children. Only in this way can you achieve effective communication between you and your children, and enhance the intimacy between you and your children.

&After watching the TV, you can also guide your children to talk about how they feel about watching the program. It's also an important step to increase your intimacy with your child.

Finally, we should note that whether watching cartoons or other TV programs, these are only bridges for children to understand the real world, and they can not replace the cognition of the real world to children. Moreover, no matter how interesting or good-looking cartoons are, they can't replace parents' company.

So, after watching TV programs, I will go to know the real world with my children, and see what the real world looks like besides cartoons. For children, that's what makes the most sense.
