Guidance on screen use in children

3 March 2023

Learn practical tips from experts in healthcare, social, and educational fields to balance device usage.

MOH has launched a new advisory on screen use for children up to 12 years of age to provide parents with more resources and practical help to support their children on healthy screen and device use. The advisory was developed by an expert panel comprising professionals from healthcare, social and educational agencies under the ambit of the Child and Maternal Health and Well-being Taskforce.

Organisations and healthcare professionals working with children could work with parents to develop the healthy screen use practices recommended in this advisory.
