This video explains how to limit the amount of time that children spend with video games and television. Parents should make sure that kids’ screen time has limits and that programs and games are age-appropriate and educational. They can also make sure media time supports their learning by watching with their child and asking questions about what they’re watching or playing. The video is most appropriate for parents of kids in third grade, fourth grade, and fifth grade.
"I think the best thing is to keep them occupied with lots of other things.
Be prepared to take a walk at the sign of boredom. Keep lots of legos
around, not put away! It takes work, but if you keep them occupied, they
don't realize they are missing the videos, tvs, electronic games, etc.
Cause once they ask, you become the bad guy always saying no. Of course we
have our rules - weekends only and for limited time periods with lots of
breaks. But if we just keep busy, no one realizes the day has gone by
without the stuff. :) "
