Two hours a day is the average time children spend in front of screens during the winter holidays, according to an Opinion Way survey for the company Tonies. This is almost twice as much as during the rest of the year.

But sometimes parents are too busy to keep their children away from screens when they're not at school. An attitude that is far from safe: problems with attention, memory and in the longer term, we can observe language delays and even a change in personality. But solutions exist with construction games, drawings, audio books and if possible, the great outdoors.
