Salam Alaikum sisters. Hope you are doing well. 🌸
Today about MOVIES/CARTOONS 🎥 🎬🎦🎞️🍿
And here are images from the movies "for the children”.👆🏻
AND PARENTS ARE SURPRISED THAT AFTER SUCH A MOVIE (WHEN EVERYTHING IS REAL FOR A LITTLE CHILD), CHILDREN ARE AFRAID TO SLEEP, EXPERIENCE NIGHTMARES, ARE AFRAID OF THE DARKNESS, NOISE, WATER, FOREST ect.
CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 5-8 YEARS OLD CANNOT SEPARATE REALITY FROM FANTASY (EVEN
ADULTS OFTEN DON'T).
AND IT IS NOT ONLY UNPLEASANT VIEWS THAT CAN DISTRESS, BUT ALSO TENSION, CREEPY MUSIC AND STRESSFUL SITUATIONS IN MOVIES.
THERE ARE BAD GUYS OR DEMONS EVERYWHERE.
I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION EVEN IF MOVIES/ CARTOONS NOT HAVING SCARRY CONTENT THEY ARE WAY TOO FAST, TOO MUCH STIMULATING CHILDREN BRAIN (INCLUDING COCOMELON).
REMEMBER THAT YOUR PERCEPTION IS DIFFERENT THAN A CHILD'S. THEY SEE EVERYTHING WITHOUT FILTERS.
And even when it's scary/uncomfortable/feeling the child still will want to watch because it is still very interesting, and later he/she want more to get adrenaline (just like when adults watch horror movies). Itself it’s scary and stimulating but want more stimulation.
R.E.M.E.M.B.E.R - everything what we see, do, smell, taste, say, hear and experience going to our subconscious as a record.
So instead of watching movies and cartoons, you can record and put on TV your family pictures and videos, child pictures. Play Quran.
But nothing can replace attention and quality time from parents and playing outside.
Children are active and should be active especially little ones.
About hyperactive and active kids more I’m talking in classes. But if your child behaves hyperactively, check his daily routine and food: to see if it is free from artificial sweeteners,colours other additives, added sugar, stimulating screens, stress, your stress and rushing (!), and control your own stress, because this also affects the child's well-being.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR CHILDREN ( not only little but teenagers too) WATCHING OR WHAT VIDEO GAMES THEY PLAYING?
