Digital Wellness Tips for Special Needs Families

Are you struggling with screen time limits for your child? Need help? Learn practical tips from digital wellness expert, Nicole Rawson (https://www.screentimeclinic.com).

Current research shows that children engaging with social media are more likely to develop challenges, including OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) and more. Even 30 minutes daily of screen time can have a significant impact our a child's communication skills, learning, and social-emotional wellbeing. 

  • Try swaps such as playing games, cooking, reading.
  • Avoid trying to "convince" your child to reduce digital usage; instead share this as a new family expectation.
  • Be ready for a messy house, potentially filled with good chaos, when kids unplug.
