如何减少“屏幕时间”：
对于一些儿童来说，把屏幕时间减少到每天2个小时是很困难的，因为电视可能成为他们日常生活的重要组成部分。但是你可以告诉孩子：久坐如何影响健康，并告诉他们做能让自己变得更健康的事情。
To decrease screen time：
Remove the TV or computer from your child’s bedroom;
Do not allow TV watching during meals or homework;
Do not let your child eat while watching TV or using the computer;
Do not leave the TV on for background noise. Turn on the radio instead， or have no background noise;
Decide which programs to watch ahead of time. Turn off the TV when those programs are over;
Suggest other activities， such as family board games， puzzles， or going for a walk;
Keep a record of how much time is spent in front of a screen. Try to spend the same amount of time being active;
If it is hard not having the TV on， try using a sleep function so it turns off automatically3;
Challenge your family to go one week without watching TV or doing other screen-time activities. Find things to do with your time that get you moving and burning fat.
