Recreational Activities When
Staying Indoors With Children

By XGIMI Tech - 2022-01

Hey! Do you know that the best time to spend with your children is when playing games, cooking, camping, or doing any other interesting recreational activities with them?

However, during cold days (it may be raining or snowy) you can stay indoors with your children to teach them some things like how to cook or other recreational activities such as dancing, how to play different games, etc. Using a projector to project images or videos of what you’re showing or teaching your children will be very effective as children love entertaining activities.

Meanwhile, when staying indoors with your children, you can dance with your kids, prepare delicious meals, play games, and do other activities using a projector.

During cold days, you can stay indoors under a tent. In this case, using a camping movie projector will be an alternative to flat-screen TVs in your house.

Don't allow your children to be bored during rainy or snowy days; stay indoors with them and use the portable projector for camping to teach, play games, interact and entertain them.

Some Parents May Complain About Too Much Screen Time 

Do you know that using a projector for your display will reduce the harm that TV screens cause to kids’ eyes? The display from projectors reduces the blue light which affects the eyes.

Watched a projected object is similar to looking at the moon at night. Since the moon results as a reflection from the sun, in the same way, the projector is quite a reflection from the original display screen.

Meanwhile, projectors offer more eye protection than TV screens.

This is a 4K Ultra Short Throw laser projector which reduces the blue light that comes from TV screens and the goal is to ensure that your children never worry about eye strain which is caused when your eyes are exposed to screens for a long time.

The blue light affects the eyes when we watch movies or scenes over a long period.

Meanwhile, this projector comes with in-built intelligent eye protection that is powered by IR sensors which is an automated light dimmer. The goal is to prevent your eyes from damages that will come from radiation.
