Quotes to ponder:

"By the age of 7, an average child will have spent an entire year (of 24 hours a day) watching TV, looking at a computer, or playing video games."

"The current recommendation is that children under the age of two should not spend any time watching screens, because of the adverse effect on brain development and attention spans."

"Children who are more active are less likely to be overweight, be happier, perform better at school, be more resilient to life’s challenges, and healthier."
