[Heruitsending] Vakansietyd = Skermtyd: Wat 'n Arbeidsterapeut Wil Hê Jy Moet Weet/[Rebroadcast] Holiday Time = Screen Time: What an Occupational Therapist Wants You to Know

Terwyl 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon 'n produksiebreek neem en werk aan nuwe inhoud, deel ons weer van ons gewildste episodes. Dat skermtyd 'n rol gaan speel in jou kleuter, kind en tiener se lewe (soveel te meer tydens die vakansie) is byna onvermydelik. En hoewel amper elke ouer dit soms gebruik om ons te help om "dinge gedoen te kry", gaan dit dikwels gepaard met skuldgevoelens. In dié episode probeer ons riglyne skep vir gebalanseerde skermtyd. Arbeidsterapeut Carla Grobler deel die waarskuwingstekens wat jou kan help identifiseer of jou kind se skermtyd hulle negatief beïnvloed, en gee ook raad oor hoe om die kwessie aan te takel. Ons bespreek verskillende soorte skermtyd en die impak daarvan, en fokus op die alternatief—hoe om skermtyd te vervang met speel. Deur die gesprek probeer ons praktiese planne maak oor hoe gesinne skerms kan gebruik sonder om tyd saam prys te gee. While 'n Ma & 'n Mikrofoon takes a production break to work on new content, we’re sharing some of our most popular episodes again. Screen time is almost inevitable in the lives of toddlers, children, and teenagers—especially during the holidays. While most parents rely on it occasionally to "get things done," it often comes with feelings of guilt. In this episode, we aim to establish guidelines for balanced screen time. Occupational therapist Carla Grobler highlights the warning signs that can help you determine whether your child’s screen time is negatively affecting them. She also shares advice on how to address the issue. We explore different types of screen time and their impact, focusing on alternatives—how to replace screen time with play. Through the conversation, we aim to develop practical plans for families to use screens without sacrificing quality time together. - Intro Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/burst-of-light License code: I430IW70W4DQLJ9Z Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
