New Technologies – Balance Your Activities

🎯 How much of today went by in front of a screen, and how much outdoors? “New technologies: balance your activities” is a game that helps children see their own day from the outside and understand why it matters not to overdo any one activity. Eight categories – physical, mental, sedentary, technological, individual, group, short and long – become a simple map of the day.

✨ What does this game develop?

• Independence and time planning – the child learns to weigh up their own daily routine;
• Logical thinking – activities are assigned to several categories at once;
• Healthy habits – screen time is discussed through play, without arguments;
• Language – arguing why an activity belongs in that particular category.

🎲 How to play at home

Children assign the activity tokens to categories and discuss whether their day is balanced: if almost everything is sedentary and technological – what is missing? Draw up a “balanced day” plan together and check back a week later. The game moves the screen time conversation off the battlefield and into shared exploration – with no lecturing.

🧑‍🏫 Tips for specialists

For school psychologists and social pedagogues this is a ready-made resource for conversations about digital balance, preventing a sedentary lifestyle and social isolation – topics that are relevant in nearly every classroom today. The hexagonal tokens are handy for group discussion: every pupil lays out their own day and compares it with the others.

📦 What’s in the set

• 8 hexagonal category tokens;
• 42 hexagonal activity tokens.

Please note: the game instructions may be in Spanish, but the game is simple and the clear pictures mean you can start playing straight away.
