Kids' computer ergonomics

Yesterday my 4-year-old was using our computer. I looked at him and for the first time realized that he was sitting in a huge chair (compared to him) and his neck was craned so far back it was ridiculous. I realized how uncomfortable our computer desk was for him. So I gave him a booster chair and put the mouse within easier reach (a kid size mouse would be even better). A lot of you might already have realized this but if not here's a heads up - make your computer kid friendly. Boost him/her up so that the screen is at eye level at least to make things more comfy. Kids can get neck/back and shoulder problems too.

clayonmyeyes,

Got it covered. I have one of the chairs that goes up and down so they can get comfortable. They all use the computer/internet regularly for school and keeping up with grandma's and other relatives. My oldest has the e-card thing down to a science. They all have books that are also computer interactive. Certain pages refer to web site pages that expand on the books knowledge and often include interactive learning games/pages. So it could be ancient egypt, American Sign Language, typing lessons, world animal habitats, or sponsoring a pair of pigs for a native Asian missionary family, they really are using it alot more than I did at their age, way more!

In Christ,
GreyBear

Guee technology is going fast today alright! WoW They are starting to get back to bible times,
When the young boys! were "Kings!" did you ever read that! they were so young and Yet? had
alot of Wisdom to become Kings wicked and Holy Kings God showed us in His Word.

Your blog is one of them! reminding me of how? Young a person can have such Wisdom.
