SPC, the Spanish technology company specialized in consumer electronics, offers four solutions to maintain balance and achieve optimal family harmony with the help of technology.
With the arrival of the summer season and the end of the school year, the puzzle of family harmony also appears. Summers still last three months for the little ones, but adults only have one month of vacation per year: balancing work and personal life in summer remains a pending task for many families in our country as these warm days approach.
Working from home with children does not have to be seen as something stressful, but rather as a perfect moment to learn to manage time between being productive and having fun with the little ones. Thanks to technological tools such as tablets, eReaders, smartphones, and other devices, the home can be transformed into an effective and enjoyable space.
SPC, the Spanish technology company specialized in smart consumer electronics products, proposes four solutions to maintain balance and achieve optimal family harmony with the help of technology:
Educational applications, modernized and fun
Preschool and Primary School students can work on their memory, vocabulary, concentration, or get introduced to subjects like writing or music thanks to apps. A good option to entertain children while we work is to offer them a tablet with fun and educational applications, with which they will not realize they are learning. They can also use it as a creation tool: recording video/audio and editing it later, making photo retouches, and even drawing are activities that the little ones can do with this device.
With the arrival of increasingly complete games and applications, children require devices that offer optimal performance and good battery life. Also, they should have at least 16 GB of internal memory so that the use of applications is not too limited. Regarding size, models between 7 and 10 inches are recommended.
Their favorite books in the palm of their hand
Summer is a great time to encourage children’s motivation towards reading, towards adventures, the magical worlds of stories or novels, depending on the children’s age. It is important to consider the children’s tastes, personality, and the stage they are going through so that the books are more appealing to them, which will allow keeping them focused for a longer time while parents work from home.
We can take the opportunity to visit the library or bookstore to look for or choose that book (or books) that will accompany them while we telework. Or, if we need them immediately, we can opt to download digital books. In this regard, eBooks offer several advantages: you can carry hundreds of books on a single device, they do not weigh or take up space, they do not tire the little ones’ eyes, and they have great battery life.
Take advantage to organize activities with music
While teleworking, we can take the opportunity to encourage children’s daily physical activity and suggest different exercises and practices. If they are more motivated by singing, dancing, or acting, let them give free rein to the artist within to improve their concentration and creativity. Or, if they need to be calmer, you can try to have them meditate (or even fall asleep) accompanied by relaxing music.
Ultracompact and easy-to-carry speakers, with long battery life and True Wireless Stereo technology are perfect for the activity. For example, SOUND PUPS by SPC are specially designed for those looking for a very original speaker they can take anywhere: it is available in three different colors and shapes; mouse (pink), elephant (blue), or dinosaur (green).
Connect with their friends by video call
Children are social by nature. With the arrival of summer holidays, combined with the lack of availability of parents, they may start to miss their companions. Fortunately, we have the help of technology to partly reduce the effects of this isolation. For example, a smartphone will allow them to communicate instantly from anywhere with those friends they can no longer see as often. In this way, they will not only be able to make video calls with their friends but also, for example, play online games or watch a movie together from a distance, sharing great moments of laughter to ease this physical separation between them.
