NBC-WHO 13: Back to School Screen Time Tips

Kids are headed Back to School time and it’s a great time to revisit our screen time usage. Today, on NBC’s WHO 13, “Hello Iowa',” I talked with Megan Reuther about screen-time usage and simple tips to help you unplug. Watch the full video HERE.

Some of my favorite Tips that we covered:

1. Set TIME boundaries around the days and times that you use social media.

2. Have a Phone Curfew and utilize the "Screen Time" function on your phone that will turn off apps automatically at bedtime.

3. Turn off all notifications for non-essential apps.

4. Sleep with your phone off and in another room.

5. Set a positive example for your kids!
