Internet Blocking Alternatives from Mikko: Help Your Kids Monitor Their Screen Time with the Mikko Que
As amazing a tool, resource, and entertainment option as the Internet can be, there are also a handful of negative aspects of the World Wide Web, especially as they relate to children. In addition to the wealth of inappropriate content on the Internet, there exists the possibility of excess Internet usage keeping children from completing chores or homework, getting the proper amount of sleep or family time, or any number of other drawbacks that can keep children from leading a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle. This often results in parents searching for internet blocking tools to prevent these negative side effects of Internet usage.
That's where the Mikko Que can help. We've created a device that not only provides parental Internet control, but also helps parents monitor and control the amount of screen time their kids spend on video games, television, and more.
Here's a brief glimpse of how the Mikko Que operates as an internet blocking tool, as well as a device to monitor and regulate other multimedia devices in the home:
-
Simply connect the cables from your Internet connection, TV, video games, and more into the Mikko Que. The connectors where these cables plug into the Que are secured by lock and key, discouraging any efforts to tamper with the system.
-
Using any computer, follow the directions on the setup software to input your children's names into the system, as well as the amount of time they are allotted each day for use on the Internet, watching TV, playing video games, etc.
-
Save this information onto a USB drive for each of your kids, creating a TimeKey that they can then plug into the Mikko Que and begin using their time allotments. You also have the flexibility to program several specific time ranges throughout the day that your children are allowed to use certain devices.
-
When the total time allotment has been used by your child, a warning will go off, and shortly afterward, the Internet blocking features of the Mikko Que will kick in. The Que also will block the signals from the TV, video games, etc. at the time you specified for those devices.
As you can see, the Mikko Que isn't a simple internet blocking solution – it's so much more. The Mikko Que gives you the ability to keep an eye on your children's total screen time across a number of different devices. It also helps you teach your children the value of responsible time management and the healthy consumption of these various multimedia outlets.
Don't spend another day enduring tireless bickering with your kids about getting their homework done or to quit watching TV. Contact us today to find out more about the Mikko Que and how it can provide you with a powerful internet blocking tool and screen time management solution.
