The use of screens is more present in our daily lives; many times we use cell phones or tablets to entertain our little ones; however, there are ways to calm children down without using screens.

Generating habits from a young age to encourage responsible use of screens is super important to avoid excesses. During the Covid-19 pandemic, children’s use of screens increased.
According to the Report on children’s television consumption 2020 prepared by the Federal Institute of Telecommunications (IFT), it indicates that Mexican children spent an average of four hours and 44 minutes, daily, in front of television during the first year of the pandemic.
Besides, UNICEF recommends that parents, governments and schools seek actions to guarantee safe and responsible use of screens.
