Safeguard Your Digital World with Guardian Protection

In today’s digitally connected world, ensuring a safe and secure online environment for you and your family has become paramount. As our reliance on the internet grows, so does the need for advanced network protection and parental controls. That’s where Kosciusko Connect’s Guardian Protection, Powered by ProtectIQ and ExperienceIQ, comes in. With its comprehensive suite of features, Guardian not only safeguards your home network but also empowers you to customize and monitor your internet experience. In this article we’ll take a look at the expert recommendations when it comes to kids and screen time and dive into how Guardian protect your family, giving you peace of mind.

The Importance of Healthy Screen Time

The American Academy of Pediatrics advises the following screen time guidelines by age range:

Under 2 years old: Limit to shared screen time with parents

2-5 years old: No more than one hour per day

5-17 years old: No more than two hours per day (homework not included)

It probably won’t surprise you to learn that most children are logging far more hours than this guideline in front of screens – by as much as 4 times! The short and long-term effects of too much time spent on screens can negatively impact sleep quality, mental health, educational performance, and social development.

Recommendations to promote healthy screen time:

Limit access to screens 30-60 minutes before bedtime

Do not allow screens during family meals

Set a good example with your own safe and healthy screen habits

If a pattern of heavy screentime already exists in your home, it could be daunting to consider changing the rules. It might be helpful to start slowly by implementing one recommendation at a time. When you do make the decision to embrace healthy screen time recommendations, Kosciusko Connect’s Guardian will be a fantastic tool to help you take control of your household’s digital network. Guardian can do it all and it never stops working to protect you and your family.
