Are we giving children too much screen time?
Singapore is one of the most technologically-advanced countries in the world. Technology has become an inseparable part of daily lives and will continue to be so in the years to come. At this point of time, it seems virtually impossible to turn back the clock to steer lifestyles away from evolving technology. In fact, it's no secret that some parents find it easier and quicker to pacify their restless children with a smartphone or a tablet.
Reliance on technology begs the question:
Are young children spending too much time on gadget screens, and is it affecting their health? In conjunction with the 40th anniversary celebration of NTUC First Campus, together with Income, join as experts discuss and share with you tips and guidelines on managing screen time for young children.
