Screen Time on Sick Days: A Flexible Family Plan
A sick day can justify changing the ordinary family routine. Make the screen exception clear, keep care and rest ahead of entertainment, and explain how the usual arrangement will return. There is no useful one-size-fits-all number of extra hours for every child and every illness.

Screen Time for Preschoolers: How to Apply Age Guidance to Real Life

Kids’ Eyes and Screens: A Practical Guide to Comfort and Warning Signs
If your child's eyes feel uncomfortable during screen use, pause the activity, ask what they are experiencing, and check the viewing setup. Do not assume that a new pair of blue-light glasses—or simply a stricter timer—answers the problem.
