Why Screen-Free Matters 

In the early years, children learn through movement, play, imagination, and connection. These real-world experiences build the foundations for emotional regulation, confidence, language, & focus in ways screens cannot replace.

Child growth

The Nervous-System-

We look at screen use through a regulation lens, recognising that too much screen time can overwhelm young nervous systems and affect sleep, focus, and emotional balance.

Better growth

What “Screen-Free” Means 

Screen-free at Child Unplugged means hands-on, sensory-rich, child-led experiences where real materials, real movement, and real connection come first.

How Families Can Reduce ScreenTime 

Families can reduce screen reliance through simple shifts like offering open-ended play, building screen-free routines, prioritising outdoor time, and supporting emotional regulation through play.
