When children are a healthy weight, they feel better about themselves. They find it easier to play and learn. And they're more likely to grow up healthy too. That's why making sure they're a healthy weight right from the start is one of the best things you can do to set them up for life.

These 10 steps to a healthy weight will help you bring up happy, healthy kids, and make life easier too.

Digital technology has become an important part of many children's and teenagers' lives and many of them use technology to play every day.

'Digital technology' is a broad term that refers to smart phones, tablets, computer games consoles, social media and television.

The United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child acknowledges the concerns and challenges that digital platforms present but calls for a balanced approach. General Comment no. 17 encourages countries that have signed up to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) to ensure that all children have equal opportunity to experience the benefits of internet access. General Comment no. 25 on children's rights in relation to the digital environment explains this further.

Online relationships are important to children's and teenagers' lives. They report that there are benefits to using technology, for example:

establishing and maintaining friendships

learning about the world

having fun

making arrangements to meet up and play with friends.

Some studies have found a link between playing computer games and mental wellbeing. Disabled children and those with low self-esteem have said that, in moderation, gaming and using digital technology can give them a sense of belonging.

Although many children enjoy this kind of play, they also tell us they enjoy activities in their own communities that are not technology related. They say they would like more opportunities to play that don't involve technology. For this, they benefit from the input of supportive adults who help develop a rich and varied play environment.

Digital technology needs to be part of a wide range of choices of play experiences and opportunities. It might be seen as one element of a 'balanced diet' of play with equal importance placed on:

active, physical play

playing with the elements

all the other types and behaviours of play that all children need in their everyday lives.

This aligns with and builds on the Welsh Government's definition of play (published in its 2002 Play Policy) as:

'encompassing children's behaviour which is freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated. It is performed for no external goal or reward and is a fundamental and integral part of healthy development - not only for individual children, but also for the society in which they live'.

Opportunities for children to play can be supported or restricted in three main ways:

Time: the demands on children's time and how it is structured

Space: the amount, design and management of space where children might play

Permission: fear, expectations, tolerance, and the way adults view childhood and play.

​Does it seem the busier your family gets, the slimmer the chances you’ll see each other at dinner (or any other meal, for that matter)? If you answered yes, don’t feel guilty. Life demands a lot of everyone, your kids included–and many families find it hard to block out time for shared meals. But here’s something that might motivate you to change things up: kids who eat with their families at least 3 times a week enjoy physical, emotional, social and academic benefits. Learn more.
