- Learning
From about age 6, children can learn to turn off a screen when their agreed time ends. A visual timer and a 5-minute warning make it much easier.
Try this week with your kids
Noki suggests a first week of quests and rewards for your kids. You change what you like before you start.
Why it matters
Stopping on their own builds self-control and keeps screen time calm for the whole family.
Steps for kids
- Agree on your screen time before you start.
- Set the timer.
- When it beeps, finish your level or episode.
- Turn the screen off yourself.
- Choose something else to do.
