 Children today are exposed to technology at a young age which can have both positive and negative effects on their development. Research suggests that too much screen time can lead to decreased attention spans, poorer language skills, and reduced physical activity. However, it can also help improve literacy and numeracy skills and provide access to educational resources. Therefore, parents need to monitor their children's screen time carefully and limit it to no more than 60 minutes per day for children aged 3 to 5, and no more than 2 hours per day for those aged 6 to 8.
