According to scientists, children who rarely play computer games on tablets, phones or personal computers learn better
Dr. Jeremy Walsh of the CHEO Research Institute in Ottawa, Canada, said: “Based on our findings, pediatricians, parents, educators, and developers will promote the idea of limiting rest time in front of screens and, in return, prioritize healthy sleep patterns in childhood and adolescence ".
Children who play less than 2 hours a day on a computer, tablet or phone at the age of 8-11 years old are better at taking tests for testing their mental abilities.

Scientists urge parents to better study the technical characteristics of different types, as well as their impact on children's eyesight and perception.
However, they acknowledged that research only indicates a connection between the time spent in front of the screen and the ability to know. A causal relationship between these concepts has not been proven.
