The Ministry of Health has clarified the limit allowed for children to sit in front of the television screen or electronic devices.
The ministry indicated that children aged 5 to 18 must set a specific time limit to not exceed two hours a day, and for preschoolers, the time does not exceed one hour a day.
She noted that 18- to 24-month-olds should be sitting for some time with a parent, but children up to 18 months shouldn’t have time to sit in front of the TV.
