- How can I balance screen time with physical activity for my kids

Sure! Here are five different ways you could respond to that question:

[MckenziePatel]

. "Honestly, it’s all about setting some boundaries! I try to create a schedule where we have designated screen time, but also block out times for outdoor play. Maybe even make it a fun challenge—like for every hour of screen time, they need to spend at least 30 minutes outside."

[HaloBentley]

. "I’ve found that making physical activity a part of their daily routine really helps. Like, we’ll do a family walk after dinner or have dance parties in the living room. It keeps things lively and they don’t even realize they’re getting exercise!"

[FrankSavage]

. "You could try mixing it up a bit! If they want to play video games, maybe they can earn that time by completing a physical activity first. Like, for every 20 minutes of playing outside, they get 10 minutes of screen time. It’s a win-win!"

[LedgerMorgan]

. "I think it’s all about leading by example. If they see you being active—whether it’s biking, running, or even just playing catch—they’re more likely to join in. Plus, planning family outings that involve physical activities can be a blast!"
