Studies have suggested that children watch much more television than they did in the past and spend less time on active or creative things. What are the reasons and what measures should be taken to encourage children to spend more time on active or creative things?
In my parts of the world,
children
should spend more time
on active and creative activities
. However
, recently, the number of children
who watch too much TV
and do not participate in active activities
are increasingly popular. In this
essay, I will discuss some of the reasons
and measures for that.
Let’s start by looking at the reasons
. Firstly
, children
's television programs are broadcast all day with addictive content such
as vivid animations and colours that make children
not interested in everything around them. Secondly
, parents
nowadays are busy with their work, so they want children
to focus on an activity that does not require much of their attention, such
as watching television. These two reasons
tend to make children
spend more time
in front of the television screen instead
of participating in active or creative activities
.
Turning to the other side of the solutions. First of all, parents
should limit their children
's device time
by only allowing them to watch TV
for a certain period of time
. For example
, my young brother only gets to watch tv
one hour after dinner. Another possible solution is that parents
can spend more time
with their children
participating in outdoor or creative activities
. Parents
should take their children
to go out such
as going picnic or going to the zoo if they get good grades.
In conclusion, the number of TV
shows significantly increases for children
and parents
spend less time
with their children
, those are the two main reasons
leading to the increase in children
's TV
viewing time
. Therefore
, parents
should spend more time
playing sports on weekends with their kids or let them participate in gifted classes to limit TV
watching.Submitted by anhnguhongmai on
