Impact of Screen Time on Social-Emotional Development

# data[].attributes.body
Excessive screen time can negatively affect young children's social-emotional development by reducing attention span, impulse control, and empathy. It also disrupts sleep, which is essential for emotional regulation and learning. Even a small amount of sleep loss can impact mood, memory, and judgment, making it harder for children to manage emotions and interact positively with others

Managing Difficult Behaviours in Young Children

Difficult behaviours in young children may include tantrums, aggression, defiance, or frequent emotional outbursts. These behaviours are often a result of limited communication skills, frustration, or difficulty managing emotions, and are a normal part of early development

Social-emotional (SE) competencies are the skills that help children understand and manage their emotions, build healthy relationships, and make responsible decisions. These skills form the foundation for a child’s overall wellbeing, learning, and future success.

Key areas of SE competencies include:

1. Self-Awareness – Recognising one’s own feelings, strengths, and needs.

2. Self-Management – Controlling emotions, handling stress, and staying motivated.

3. Social Awareness – Understanding and showing empathy for others.

4. Relationship Skills – Building positive friendships, communicating clearly, and resolving conflicts.

5. Responsible Decision-Making – Making thoughtful, safe, and fair choices.

When children develop strong SE skills, they are better able to cope with challenges, interact positively with others, and grow into resilient, compassionate individuals.
