This can greatly accelerate a child&#8217;s improvement or as it can also slow it down. In the history and in the recommendations in the treatment plan, sleep, screens and exercise must have a relevant place in the guide to the family.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The World Health Organization has published specific lines of recommendation.<\/strong> They are collected in this article by Willumsen &amp; Bull (2020) that you have in the private area.<\/p>\n<p>There are recommended daily times of physical exercise, sleep and screens. In addition, they are collected by age blocks up to 5 years.<\/p>\n<p>Do you know the maximum number of minutes a child should be in front of screens? Never more than 60 minutes and nothing during your first year.
