Several strategies for reducing screen time already exist, although their effectiveness varies. We investigated the transition from screen time to non-screen time activities. "Watch with Joy" is a child-friendly video-player which, based on the videos you watch, can suggest activities for the non-screen time. Our four-week qualitative study involving four families revealed that the incorporation of alternative technological methods can ease the transition to non-screen time. A character can facilitate communication with the child. Providing non-screen activities shifts the child’s focus away from turning off the screen and possible negative emotions. Consequently, the child has more time to adjust to accepting the end of screen time. In conclusion, our research underscores the significant role of parents and their parenting styles in shaping the success of such a technology-based approach.</style></ABSTRACT><URL><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1145/3626705.3627792</style></URL><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Watch with Joy: Regulating children s media use through alternative activities after screen time</style></title></RECORD></records></xml>
