Screen Time Detox Challenge


Hello Round Top Families!  The SIC hopes you are looking for ways to detox from your screen this week and checking the activity sheet that was sent home for ways to connect as a family.

Did you know?

The American Academy of Pediatrics found kids who spent two to four hours each day using digital devices outside of schoolwork were 23% more likely of "always or usually" not finishing their homework compared with children who spent less than two hours consuming digital media.

Why not try something new?  After homework is finished play a game together or make dinner together?

Screen Detox challenge activity sheet entries are due Nov 19th!
