Possible psychological effects of confinement on children

For more than two weeks now, we've been experiencing a completely unusual situation that's been disrupting the way we deal with our daily lives, both for adults and children. The impact of confinement on parents may be more negative than on children, as they have to balance working from home (those who are teleworking), keeping the house tidy, cooking, and keeping up with the little ones' education and entertainment needs.

According to experts, this type of confinement can cause children to become irritable, moody, lonely, and anxious. But parents' role here is crucial in explaining the situation we're experiencing in a calm, relaxed, and positive manner. Turn this challenging environment into a game that fosters entertainment.

How to prevent negative effects on children:
  • Maintain daily routines. It's important for children to continue doing homework, reading, and studying from Monday to Friday.
  • Maintain bedtime and wake-up times that are more or less the same as before the lockdown and maintain a different timeframe on weekends.
  • Try to stay in touch with friends and family. This will reduce any feelings of social isolation your child may experience.
  • Do some sport. You can do it as a family and it will be more fun.
  • Avoid excessive use of television, computers, etc.
  • Keep your mind active with educational games.
  • Encourage creativity.
We want to help you with this mission, so we'll explain how SaveFamily products can make this period more enjoyable:
On the one hand, setting alarms on your savefamily watch will make it easier to maintain routines and schedules. Our goal is to help families stay connected safely so children can stay in touch with their loved ones. Thanks to the anti-spam calendar, you'll only receive and be able to make calls to the contacts you choose.
On the other hand, our savefamilycam has four educational games that will help exercise children's minds. Our camera is designed to keep our children away from excessive use of computers and tablets, and will help foster their creativity.

We'd like to help with home entertainment, and that's why we're making a significant effort by offering a 15% discount on all products and free shipping on all products. We're offering both SaveFamilyGPS and SaveFamilyCam .
