- Encourage creative play: We help children find joy in the off-line world of books, experiments, and imagination.
- Learn without limits: Our articles cover a wide range of topics, from the laws of physics to the mysteries of the cosmos, empowering kids to explore beyond their school curriculum.
How excess of screen time affects the brain of your child
5 hours a day with gadgets on average. At first, it may seem harmless, because kids are quiet and entertained. But neuroscience tells a different story:
Constant screen usage overstimulates brain’s drive system which leads to reducing focus, planning and self-regulation.
Children struggle to concentrate on non-digital tasks, even for short periods.
Off-line world like books, toys and conversations may seem boring.
Emotional outbursts, anxiety and frustration are not misbehavior, it is neurological overload.
By the age of 7, many children can’t focus on anything that doesn’t blink, buzz, or scroll. They struggle with creative play, lose interest in learning, and depend on devices to feel calm.
