In the event of a school closure, you may well find yourself in a situation where your children are stuck indoors for many hours or/and spending a lot more on screens just for the sake of maintaining your own sanity.

There's only so many hours you can spend persuading them to play board games and read books before screens and their many distractions become a temptation... This post outlines practical ways to make screen time more productive.

iTime at home can be tricky as it can be difficult to manage the resourcing requirements and manage the logistics of this especially if your child is working on this while you are at work...

Enter digital technology. Now I'm not for one second advocating for iTime to purely focus on digital artefacts but there's no doubt in my mind that focusing on creating and learning a digital skill to create a digital artefact is relatively simple to manage. This post suggests a plethora of iTime activities that can be conducted with nothing else other than a digital device, many don't even require an internet connection.
