Hello sir! this phase of growth of child is very critical and decisive about the kind of personality he/she is going to develop in future. It is unfortunate that due to the current covid scenario, children are unable to engage in outdoor activities much. The main culprit here is screentime. Please keep your children away from getting hooked up to the screens all day long be it tv or mobile phones. Increased screen time is a mode of passive learning and once the child develops interest in passive learning they lose interest in any kind of active learning activities like talking with people, being inquisitive, reaching out for all kind of new things they see around them. But the problem can be sorted out at home also by a little more effort on the part of parents. 1. Limit the screen time to max 2 hours day. (recommended international guidelines as per age) 2. Engage them in active learning skills. 3. Spend more time in playing, talking with them and questioning them. 4. I know it’s difficult being parents not to pamper your child, but try to do it in moderation only. Hope this helps. You can reach out to me anytime for consultation and any further queries. Will be happy to help. Thank you.
