Screentime and Other Ways Kids Spend their Days

If screentime is a challenge in your home (pretty sure that is most of us!) then this episode is for you! Today we’re talking about how we can be intentional about screens, sports, hobbies, and all the ways kids spend their days! - From Chapters 12 and 13 of my book: Raising Amazing: Bringing up Kids Who Love God, Like Their Family, and Do the Dishes Without Being Asked!  

We start by zooming out on our kids’ days, and considering the time they spend at school, in sports, doing other activities. There is no doubt that in the busyness of family life we can find ourselves on autopilot, not tuned in to how our kids’ days are shaping their young lives.  

Next we talk about the reality of screentime challenges. I share some helpful guidelines and encouragement for setting healthy boundaries, routines, and rhythms with technology. 

None of this is easy, but with some intentionality we can make small changes that make a big difference! Remember, raising amazing kids is not easy, but it’s worth it all in the end!
