Giggles N’ Hugs (GIGL) Supporting Child Development through Fun, Educational Activities
Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. (OTCQB: GIGL) is the company behind three award-winning, family-friendly restaurants that incorporate fun with education on all levels. The company’s restaurants create an environment where adults can enjoy some relaxation while their kids can act exactly how they are meant to: like children. GIGL does not just conform to modern trends by putting children in front of video games or computers while adults mingle amongst each other. It provides entertainment that teaches young children a set of skills for them to develop in a healthy way.
Recent studies have shown that children are relying on technology as their main form of entertainment. This, in turn, has proved to have negative impacts on a child’s development, both mentally and physically. A study published on the Huffington Post website, entitled ‘How Technology Is Having A Serious Impact On Your Child’s Development’, states, “A recent study has revealed that children are losing touch with vital life skills due to digital device overuse. More than half of children aged between two and ten feel more confident using a tablet than learning to swim, telling the time and tying their shoe laces.”
Although technology also has a positive impact on the development of human beings, things have gone from one extreme to another in the past 20 years. The days of families sitting around a dinner table without the television on are becoming fewer. In addition to this, many children find more pleasure sitting inside on their tablet than playing outside in the yard.
The lack of social skills and need for nature are not the only issues that have arisen since the increase of technology as a source of entertainment. In ‘Determining the Effects of Technology on Children’, a study published by Kristina E. Hatch from the University of Rhode Island, the author highlights the health-related issues that have come with this new phenomenon. Hatch says that, according to Livestrong.com, “The obesity rate in children has tripled in the past 20 years.” Other health related issues have also come to light, including the fact that children’s sensory skill development has been put at risk and children are communicating differently than previous generations (not necessarily in a good way).
It must be said that the technological advancement witnessed in the past 20 years has not all been negative. There have been advancements that have benefited children in the classroom, socially and even physically. This said, with no boundaries and a lack of other options outside of referring back to a device for fun, there have been a considerable number of rising issues.
Fortunately for families in the U.S., the days of finding a child-friendly environment with healthy meals are not lost. Yes, Giggles N’ Hugs owns and operates three family-friendly restaurants, but it also offers parents the opportunity to feel relieved that their children are being entertained the old fashioned way. Aside from providing children with hours of amusement, GIGL runs an endless number of activities that benefit kids on both a physical and educational level. From team building to a range of other artistic and creative games, kids are having their minds opened to a mound of new skills that would not be possible in front of a tablet. To top everything off, all of these are accompanied by Giggles N’ Hugs’ range of healthy, child-friendly recipes.
