Growing Up Smart in the Digital World - An Interaction with the Parents on Digital Wellbeing 2026

Small habits today can shape healthier digital choices tomorrow. The School Counselling Department and the Primary School conducted an interactive session on ‘Digital Wellbeing’ for the parents of children from Nursery and LKG on Monday, 24 August 2026. The session focused on understanding the influence of digital exposure on young minds, including imitation learning, language development, overstimulation, age-appropriate content, screen-time management, and digital monitoring.

Parents actively participated in a live poll and shared their concerns and experiences related to their children’s digital habits. The session also explored practical strategies such as co-viewing, setting device boundaries, creating family routines and device-free zones, and using calm, positive correction methods. An engaging Q&A session brought the session to a close, during which parents openly shared their concerns and reflected on alternative methods of engagement.
