“TV is bad.” “Screens are ruining kids.”

You’ve probably heard it all. But here’s the truth👇
It’s a lot more complicated than that.

It’s not just about how much screen time your child gets…

It’s about how, when, and why they use it.

Our course, Little Kids, Big Tech, gives you real tools to:

✅ Set boundaries that work

✅ Avoid meltdowns

✅ Ditch the guilt (for good)

Tired of fighting over screen time? Try THIS!
If your child struggles with screen time boundaries, a predictable routine can make all the difference. Instead of constant battles, they’ll know exactly when to expect screens—so they don’t ask all day long. 🎯
⏳ How it works:

✔️ Set a consistent screen time each day

✔️ Anchor it to a daily habit (like after school or while making dinner)

✔️ Stick with it—even on weekends!
When screen time is structured, not spontaneous, kids feel more in control (and so do you!).

If your child melts down when screen time ends, it’s not just about being “difficult.” There are actually reasons behind screen time tantrums! 👇

⭐ It’s hard to stop fun things — not just for kids, but for us, too. Sometimes, it helps to transition to something else fun (reading books or playing together) instead of going right to something they don’t want to do.

It’s also possible that the tantrum is related to…
🧠 Temporary declines in executive functioning – Some kids tend to have a harder time self-regulating right after screen time.

🔊 Sensory overload – Fast visuals and loud sounds can overwhelm the brain, especially for kids with ADHD, Autism, or anxiety.

📺 Modeling – If kids have been watching impatient or aggressive behavior from a character in the show, they might be mirroring some of that behavior.

💡 The good news? Understanding WHY tantrums happen is the first step to managing them.

💡 Figuring out your kid’s patterns can help you decide whether to take a break from screen time all together, limit it at a certain type or time of day, or just come up with a transition routine that helps ease the shift. For some kids, that might mean getting moving (run around outside, have a dance party), while for others a smooth transition involves calming down with books or a cuddle.

Should parents use their phones around their infants? What about their little kids? Let’s talk about it! 👀

We get it—completely avoiding screens isn’t realistic. And a lot of us feel guilt related to tech use around our kids.

When it comes to babies: research shows that 97% of parents use devices while feeding their infants. Sometimes, it even has benefits…
✔️ Helps manage frustration
✔️ Provides social connection
✔️ Offers access to helpful resources
And maternal mental health matters, which is a reason why these upsides can be very real during the infant stage.

But here’s the key: how we use our phones around our kids really matters, especially as they get older and especially when they are bidding for connection with us.
💛 Warmth and connection are key, so we don’t want our kids to feel like they’re constantly fighting with our phones for our attention

If your little kid “bids” for your attention while you’re on your phone:
👀 Look up & acknowledge them
💬 If they’re old enough to understand (and to wait), say something like:
“I really want to hear about your day! Let me finish this email and then put my phone away so I can focus on what you’re telling me.”

It’s not about never using your phone—but the way we manage tech interruptions really matters!

📵 One reason NOT to hand your kid an iPad at the table…
(It’s probably not what you think!) 👉
We’re not saying never, but did you know using screens a constant crutch can impact kids’ self-regulation skills?
💡 Self-Regulation skills help kids manage boredom, frustration, and impatience— key life skills they need! Relying on screens can interfere with kids developing these skills.
🍽️ Mealtimes are a natural chance to connect, and to practice patience (like waiting forever for fries 🍟).
If kids are routinely use screens during these moments, they can miss out on practicing and developing important skills and strategies. That said: mealtimes aren’t the only times to practice these skills!
So, what’s the right approach?
✅ Set clear boundaries.
✅ Be intentional about screen time.
✅ It’s okay to mix it up once in a while. Remember—one meal with Ms. Rachel won’t ruin their development!

How to talk to your teen about their phone? Lead with curiosity!
Ask questions about their tech habits and experiences. You might be surprised by what they share!
💬 Swap judgment for connection:
⛔ “You’re always distracted by your phone!”
✅ “What helps you stay focused when it’s hard to concentrate?”
⛔ “Why are teens so obsessed with influencers?”
✅ “Who are your favorite influencers, and what do you like about them?”
Curiosity opens doors to understanding—and builds trust with your teen.

Screen time tantrums don’t have to be a regular part of your routine.

💡 Here’s how to make those transitions smoother:
✅ Be consistent – Stick to your limits and watch the protests fade.
✅ Use positive reinforcement – Celebrate their wins, big or small!
✅ Transition to something fun – A great activity makes saying goodbye to screens easier.

🧡 Take a break from routine tech use — Some kids just have a really hard time with screen time transitions, and it isn’t worth having it as part of their regular routine. Ditching screen time all together is the smoothest path for some families, and you can always re-introduce it later. You know your kid best!
