It’s back to school for kids, which means the topic of phones and screens is top of mind. Here are a few things we’re trying as a family with our kids: 1?? ????’???? ?????????????????? ???? ???? ?????????? ???????????? ?????? ???????????? ?????????? ?????????? ???????? ????????????. We decided a few years ago this would be a hill we die on. No phones until high school and, as far as we can push out social media, the better. While our older son occasionally asks about getting a phone, it doesn’t seem to be the bane of his existence. As a compromise, we got him and his brother Apple Watches, which are pretty locked down by us but give them the ability to communicate with friends and, more importantly, us. Without phones we find ourselves needing to set less boundaries around screen time, which is nice. I know many other families who have made different decisions but this was the one we felt was best for our family. 2?? ???? ?????????????? ???? ????????????????. This started off easy but has become increasingly challenging. Our sons’ watches stay in our room, but there’s a computer in the bedroom — and the iPad seems to make its way in there as well. We’re thinking of moving the computer out of the bedroom completely and placing it in a communal work area. 3?? ?????????? ?????????? ?????? ?????????????????? ?????? ????????. When school is in session, our kids get to pick one night during the week to play video games. Homework needs to be done but, other than that, it’s their choice. This gives them some autonomy and lets us keep screen time manageable during the week. As a family, we commit to no screens at the dinner table (harder for us parents), and I’m personally trying to commit to no phones for the first hour after I wake up, which I’m finding more challenging than I thought! Would love to hear from other parents about how they approach phones, social media and general screen time. What are you doing that works for your family? What have you tried and discarded?

This is something I care about quite a lot and have many regrets about how we’ve managed our children’s relationships with screens and tech. I love what Smartphone Free Childhood are doing, so I’ll be regularly sharing these posts! Here are some examples of schools with progressive phone policies. #smartphonefreechildhood #smartphonefreeschools #changethenorm
Children are only at school for six or seven hours a day. But strong school smartphone policies not only create a better learning environment, they can help reduce the pressure on parents too. We've had hundreds of messages from parents in our community asking for help explaining this issue to their school leaders. So our schools working group (made up of education experts, teachers and heads from our community) has been working on a comprehensive document - the Smartphone Free Schools Guide which includes examples of British schools with the most pioneering policies. It’s for parents to send to their headteachers and is full of vital evidence, information and inspiration they can draw on to create their own forward-thinking smartphone policies. We'll be releasing this document next week via our newsletter - sign up on our site to be first to receive a copy (https://lnkd.in/ef_MQGDs). Does your school have an effective smartphone policy? Please let us know in the comments or send an email to [email protected] #smartphonefreechildhood #smartphonefreeschools #changethenorm

What Happened When Students Gave Up Their Phones for 21 Days? The Results Are Eye-Opening. Imagine asking teens to part with their phones for three whole weeks. Sounds impossible, right? But that's exactly what happened at Stanway School in Essex, where students participated in a Total Phone Ban Experiment. Here are the results: ?The first week was predictably tough →They felt disconnected and lost. →They were frustrated and anxious. →They even questioned their existence. ?By the second week, the students began to adapt →Books replaced TikTok as their source of entertainment. →Conversations with family and friends grew deeper. →Bike rides and fresh air became their escape. ?By the end of 21 days, the results were transformative →Some deleted TikTok entirely. →Others created intentional "block time" for their phones. ?Here is what their teachers observed: →They displayed a newfound focus in class. →Students were more engaged and ready to learn. →Their eye contact and listening improved significantly. So, The question here is Are we equipping kids with the tools they need to balance screen time?
