WAh, it seems that now not a few children, even under the age of 5, have started playing gadgets. Whether it’s just watching or playing games, maybe not many mothers also let their children enjoy playing gadgets without knowing the positive and negative impacts even though giving gadgets to children under 5 years old should only be about color and sound, not too much, Mom, in giving gadgets to a means of playing or watching children. Well here I will discuss about
negative and positive impacts of using gadgets on children.
Positive impact
There are educational games for children to stimulate their brains and game patterns can be adapted to the child’s age, a learning medium that can make children feel Happy!
Learn to respond to technology. With today’s sophisticated era, we cannot limit children’s curiosity about gadgets, but we as parents must continue to supervise and accompany children when playing gadgets. Mothers can provide information to children on how to use gadgets and what things can damage gadgets.
Can increase children’s knowledge with social media that can provide information and materials to satisfy children’s knowledge such as children learning to play traditional music, such as Robana etc.
Negative impact
There is a risk of exposure to radiation. Radiation exposure to gadgets is very dangerous for children’s health and development. Gadget radiation can affect or damage a child’s brain development, and the child’s immune system can also be disrupted.
Slow to understand lessons.
Barriers to development. Usually, if children often play gadgets, it will affect the barriers to the child’s development process.
It is at risk for the development of child psychologists because not a few in the gadgets there are often spectacles of violence against others. Children can imitate these scenes because children tend to want to do what they see and watch.
Be wise in giving gadgets to children, Mom, although there are positive impacts, we must also look at the negative aspects.
