In a world where almost every modern person has a smartphone and tablet along with a regular PC, it is impossible to avoid the influence of new technologies. At the same time, you can minimize the harm of the smartphone to the child by taking advantage of the really useful functions of the device.
Always be aware of the location of the child
Now you don't even need to call your child to find out where he is at the moment. It is enough to use the GPS navigator of your smartphone and no longer worry about your baby.
A large number of developmental applications
Despite the abundance of games that only take time and spoil the child's eyesight, there are really useful applications for training mental abilities. Parents can choose games from the App Store and Google Play, or set up parental controls on their smartphones and let the kid choose the programs himself.
Allocate time for yourself while the child is passionate about the game
It is difficult to explain to a child that virtual reality is not always useful when parents regularly use various gadgets or sometimes do not mind playing something on a computer or smartphone themselves. Therefore, instead of resisting the obvious, it is better to take maximum advantage of the functionality of the purchased device. Sometimes you just need to keep your child busy in order to do chores or make dinner. It is then that virtual entertainment can become a real lifesaver.
Alternative to books and study materials
An interactive and colorful presentation of information is more advantageous for the child's perception. Therefore, animated e-textbooks are not only more interesting, but also much easier than real books. After all, a heavy backpack will definitely not be useful for the baby's back.
Adaptation to the adult world
Growing up, the child finds himself in the world of technology, where adults communicate and work with the active use of gadgets. Therefore, the success of the child in the professional and social terms can be directly related to the development of the virtual world. Especially if the parents are employed in the IT field or work as freelancers.
Useful hobby
In addition to entertainment and educational applications, there are games that influence the creativity of the kid. Having been engaged in photography and video filming from childhood, constructing something through educational materials or drawing, a child can become a real professional in any of the creative professions. Then, by the end of school, he will already know for sure what he wants to devote his life to and who to work with.
All entertainment in one device
Modern smartphones allow not only chatting, but also playing, listening to music, watching videos or reading a book. Therefore, by spending once on a gadget, parents can save on the purchase of music players, game consoles and real books.
