The Dartnell Foundation is proud to be a sponsor of
ScreenBreak 2013 and to bring you:
Screen Savvy Moves for Parents:
1. Move the TV to a less prominent location.
2. Keep the TV off during meals.
3. Designate certain days of the week as TV-free days.
4. Do not use television as a reward.
5. Listen to music or the radio for background noise.
6. Cancel your cable subscription and use the money
for books.
7. Don’t worry if children claim to be bored. Boredom
passes and often leads to creativity.
