As babies grow older, they will become more interested in the outside world and have things or activities that they enjoy doing. Nowadays, there are many electronic products, such as televisions, computers, and mobile phones, which almost every household has. Many babies are addicted to watching TV due to insufficient guidance from their parents. So, what should a 3-year-old baby do if they keep watching TV?
1. Control time
Babies are attracted to things on TV and love watching TV. Parents should not overly indulge them. Frequently watching TV can damage a baby's vision and be detrimental to their other aspects of learning and development. Therefore, parents should forcefully control the amount of time their baby spends watching TV. You can first clarify with your baby how much time they can only watch each day and communicate more. Your baby is 3 years old and can already understand what adults are saying. You need to make a time agreement with your baby.
2. Shift attention
Parents should spend more time with their babies and play with them. Actually, babies have a natural inclination to play, and watching TV is because they feel lonely without anyone to accompany them. Parents should try to find time to play games or tell stories to their babies, guide them to learn how to draw or do other things, shift their attention, and cultivate their interests and hobbies.
3. Go out more often
Younger babies enjoy interacting with peers of the same age or similar peers. Parents should take their babies out more often to exercise, increase their exposure to the outside world, and reduce their TV viewing time.
