Children & Screen Time: Our Stance

Screens, like phones, tablets, or TVs, are everywhere, especially for kids under 12; almost everyone has them. As a parent, it’s not always easy to provide your child with a more privileged alternative, so you're likely looking for ways to manage screen time.

In the ongoing discussions about kids, screens, and video games, we offer a uniquely interesting perspective. We agree that kids benefit from outdoor activities, sports, and spending time with friends away from screen 😊. However, we also understand that screens are everywhere. Since our launch in 2020, our mission has been distinct: to become the first video game that not only entertains but also fosters curiosity and a love for learning. We aim for a form of screen usage that encourages self-improvement rather than mindless engagement.

Our 3 Principles:

1. Harnessing screens for good:

We see screens as tools for encouraging creativity and inspiring learning. Just like turning a favorite toy into a learning tool, we convert children's love for video games into educational adventures. Motivated by play, kids can achieve surprising feats when dedicated to their passions. In contrast to other visual media, video games keep them active and enhance specific skills - confirmed by a positive research study on memory and reflex tests.

2. Moderation in playtime:

Our sessions last around twenty minutes. Following French psychiatrist Serge Tisseron's "3 - 6 - 9 - 12" method, we establish guidelines for reasonable use.

3. A safe screen environment:

The PowerZ world is non-violent, promoting positive values. Unlike certain social networks or video games, there are no ads or interactions with strangers. Children can enjoy their content without distractions or negative elements interrupting their gameplay.

To Summarize:

Screen time is much like chocolate - it's everywhere, and everyone indulges. Just as with chocolate, it should be consumed in moderation to protect children's health. At PowerZ, we advocate for this balanced screen time to be immersed in an exciting universe of learning and discovery, fostering positive personal growth.
