Turn It Off!

Limit the time your child spends watching TV, using the computer, or playing video games to less than 2 hours each day. Help your child find fun things to do such as acting out favorite stories or doing an art project.

Try these ideas:

  • Play freeze tag
  • Make up dances to their favorite songs
  • Play hopscotch
  • Draw on the sidewalks with sidewalk chalk
  • Jump rope
  • Play board games
