We Can! Screen Time Chart

Fill out the We Can! Screen Time Chart to see how much time your family spends in front of a screen.

Keep one chart for each person. Be sure to include time spent with cell phones and other hand-held video or gaming devices. Post the chart where it’s easy for everyone to see and use. Good places are near the family TV, by the computer, or on the refrigerator. If screen time for each person is less than 2 hours a day,
you’re doing great! If it’s 2 hours or more, then it’s time to move more. Find ideas to get your family moving in the We Can! Family Guide. Take a look at:
