Summer is here and limiting screen time can be a challenge especially when screens not only include the television, computer, and gaming done on the family TV but also handheld devices like my Sony PSP, apps played on my iPhone during idle time, and even on our new Leapster Explorer.
Since our Explorer came into the house, it has been a challenge to keep it away from Little Miss Techie and Captain Computer. Although I do love how educational it is, screentime is still screentime. I want to make sure that we have a well rounded summer that includes use of their favorite media along with a healthy dose of outside time combined with keeping up academics to prevent the infamous summer slide.
For tips on limiting screentime, please visit The LeapFrog Community to read my newest post called Establishing Guidelines for Summer Screentime for some easy tips on how you can set rules in your home regarding the use of the many screens in our lives.
Don’t forget that you can enter to win the brand new LeapFrog Leapster Explorer and have it delivered right to your door the very day it comes out in stores (July 15) by entering here. Giveaway closes on midnight this Friday, June 25!
I am a paid contributor and write for The LeapFrog Community each week. I am not required to link to my posts on my personal site nor am I paid to do so. LeapFrog provided our family with an Explorer for review purposes.
