       In the era where smart devices are becoming an essential part of our lives. Every work of our lives is done easily by using devices. As our child adopts our daily routine activity they see us using the phone they adopt.

We can't stop our kids from using their phones or devices but we can add the limit time for the daily use of devices. Fix the time of watching screens. We have to put an eye on when they start using the device.

                                                                                                      

Install an app to limit a screen time:

 

There are many apps that limit screen time. The best thing I found for the health of children. As the routine gets tough we can't focus on the time limit of your child watching the screen. There are some apps that automatically turn the screen time off when the limit is up.
