Disconnect from your devices with Aster Hospital’s Digital Detox event in association with International Association for Human Values (IAHV)
Screen time has become an inescapable part of childhood. Gone are the days when outdoor games and activities were the means to spend free time or vacations. Children these days tend to spend most of the time playing on phones, tablets and watching TV. Continued exposure to electronic media has proven to have negative impacts on the cognitive health of children.
At this event, children will be taught different creative activities that they can engage in during their vacations while temporarily unplugging from screens. These include, creative writing, dancing, yoga, mild forms of exercise and concentration enhancing games. These activities provide children the right direction and empower them with values through innovative means.
