Does your baby like watching TV?

My daughter is really cute anyway. She has always had two hobbies, one is eating and the other is watching.

But every time she wants to watch TV, I will take the initiative to stop. I'm afraid watching TV and cell phone too little will affect her eyes.

In order to be better for my daughter, I read all kinds of materials. I'll tell you how old the baby is to watch TV.

There are different opinions about how old a baby can watch TV. Some people say that children can watch TV as soon as they are born, while others say that they can't watch TV until kindergarten.

The American Encyclopedia of Parenting once advised children under 2 years old not to watch TV.

British experts also said: children under 3 years old had better not watch TV.

But in fact, babies over 8 months old can watch TV, but there is a time limit, and it is best not to exceed 3 minutes.

This is because a child's strength actually changes from weak to strong. When the baby is born, everything is vague, and even what is in front of you can only be seen roughly.

When the baby is 4 months old, the hand-eye coordination ability is gradually improved before he can see things clearly. At this time, the baby's vision is about 0.02-0.05.

When the baby reaches 8 months, his vision becomes normal. However, electronic products that irritate the eyes, such as televisions and mobile phones, should not be shown to the baby. If necessary, it is best not to exceed 3 minutes.

If you want to ask how old your baby can watch TV normally, Yale University has done a special study, and the result is that it is a prerequisite for children to want to watch TV.

From the developmental point of view, it is best for children to watch TV, mobile phones and other electronic products after the age of 3, so as to protect their eyes.

But from the perspective of brain development, it doesn't matter how old children watch TV.

However, a study by Professor Singh of Yale University shows that watching TV often can damage children's brains.

This is because cartoons are dynamic, which can make children's brains run quickly, but at the same time, it will also affect children's concentration and thinking ability.

Generally, cartoons will give children answers directly, and children don't need to think about why this happens at all, so it will affect their thinking.

In addition, watching TV for a long time will make children dependent on TV and unwilling to do other things.

Therefore, don't think that there is a lot of knowledge on TV that children need to learn, which is beneficial to their growth. If you really want children to learn more knowledge, you might as well read books. Cartoons are just places for children to relax.

I believe that through the research of Yale University, parents already know when their children can watch TV, and parents don't need to think about it any more.

In fact, TV is not as good as parents think, but it will affect children's brains. Therefore, if you can watch less, let the children watch less. At that time, it was better to let children read picture books, tell stories to children and play games with them. This is a behavior that is conducive to the growth of children.
