Setting Television Limits? Let the Mikko Que Make the Process Easier
Like many kids today, the TV may be one of the first things your child turns to whenever they have a free moment. Whether it's as soon as they get home from school, once they've finished their homework, or before bed, there may be certain times of the day where you allow your kids to turn on the television. But more important than when you children watch TV is for how long. Setting television limits and maintaining parental TV control is important, because overuse can prevent children from finishing their schoolwork or chores, and can cause arguments when it's time to eat or go to bed.
Luckily, the Mikko Que can help you set television limits, as well as monitor and control your children's screen time on the computer, video games, and more. Here's a look at how this innovative device can help you set effective television limits:
-
Simply attach 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 the software setup and any computer you have access to, create the television limits, or time allotments for other devices, as well as time ranges for each of your children.
-
Save these schedules onto any USB thumb drives, called Mikko TimeKeys.
-
Your children then insert their own TimeKey into the Que when they wish to use some of their allotted time.
-
If the child is watching the TV, for instance, the Que begins the clock on your child's allotted time.
-
Audible and visual warnings will alert the child when their time limit is nearing.
-
Once the child reaches their television limits, the Mikko Que will block the audio and video signal and limit the TV from displaying any programming.
Furthermore, the Mikko Que's benefits don't stop with television limits. The Que also offers this level of functionality with the other multimedia and entertainment devices in your home, such as the Internet connection, video games, DVD player, and more. The Mikko Que is your all-in-one hardware/software solution for media management, setting television limits, and monitoring screen time on the other entertainment devices in your home.
