Children can benefit from age-appropriate technology. Watching TV or playing on the computer can be
fun, entertaining and a good way to relax. And there are many programs, games and apps that are
educational and can help your child's learning.
But if children spend too much time in front of a screen they will miss out on
other important activities. Things like playing outdoors, talking to friends and
reading are vital for kids.
Start by learning about what technology is around. You can do your own
research and talk to your children and other parents. Think about what is
good about each device. And think about what you will need to limit or
manage, based on your child's age.
It's also a good idea to put some rules in place. Let your kids know what they are allowed to use
and when they can use it. Discuss this as a family so that your kids can have a say too.
Too much pressure from either work or family can seriously affect our lives and the lives of those around
us. When work stress spills over into home life, we might argue more, have problems with our relationships
and suffer health problems too.
Stress from home can impact your work in the same way. You might even struggle to do your job properly.
So how can you get the balance right? A good rule to start with is that when you are at home your family is
your focus. And when you are at work your job is your focus.
At home, try to make your mornings run as smoothly as possible. If you start your day calmly then you
won't be bringing any stress from home to work.
Set some ground rules and put a leaving home routine in place. You can even teach your kids to do things
for themselves, like getting dressed.
At work, you should try to do hard tasks early in the day. By doing this you will be taking less stress home
with you at the end of the day.
Think of some ways to unwind and relax after work that aren't going to affect your family's evening routine.
Regular exercise and healthy eating can really help.
