Video Games, Screen Time, and Healthy Gaming Habits | Dr. Rachel Kowert | A Kids Co.

Описание: What does the research actually say about screen time and video games? After we received more questions about regulating kids’ screen time for both school and play, author and gaming expert Dr. Rachel Kowert joined us for a conversation on video games and how they affect kids’ behavior, mental health, and relationships. She helps break down the science behind kids and video games, and outlines the real impact of gaming from decades of research. Together, Dr. Kowert and host Elise Hu discuss what setting a healthy video game balance can look like, and practical advice for getting involved in your kids’ video gaming lives.

Key Takeaways:
Recognize the benefits of gaming in kids’ lives, rather than discrediting it as a useless pastime.
Cooperatively determine boundaries and rules with your child about video game use.
Have conversations with your kids about what healthy habits and feelings around video games can look like.
You know your child best, and you get to decide what kind of content you’re comfortable with your child experiencing online.
The best way to get involved with your kid’s gaming life is to play alongside them.
