Is your child’s screen time helping them express themselves — or just keeping them busy?

Children spend hours on devices every day, yet many parents still look for activities that build confidence, imagination, and real writing ability. Creative screen time for kids becomes meaningful when technology becomes a space for storytelling and self-expression.

Books Giant gives children that space.

Why Screen Time Feels Disconnected from Real Development

Let’s face it, taking children away from the screens is nearly impossible. Videos, games, social media – all designed to be extremely addictive. If we as parents aren’t careful about our children’s usage of technology, there can be a snowball effect we won’t be able to change later.  

Added to the mix is also AI that gives children another reason to spend countless hours on their computer or phone. Naturally, the potential is huge and can be positive, but only in a safe and controlled environment. 

In 2026, we have no choice but to accept the fact that computers and laptops are an inseparable part of everyday life. It’s true both at home and also in classrooms, where screens are positively used for learning. 

If we can’t prevent screen usage and if indeed there’s a lot of potential in what children can achieve when using computers and AI correctly, the question is simple – how can we bridge the gap and transform the screen time into creative time for growth and self expression?

A Creative Writing Platform Built Around Imagination

We believe that the answer to the previous question is Books Giant.

Books Giant is a creative writing platform where children write their own books. Through this user-friendly and inviting online tool, t can choose their ideas, develop their stories freely, and generate AI-powered illustrations that visually represent their imagination.

The AI serves as inspiration and visualization support, while the writing itself remains fully in the child’s hands. The features of Books Giant are quite diverse and nicely balance AI with classic writing. With the Advanced add-ons of the software, children can even generate educational stories and books in seconds about any topic they are curious about. They can also turn the book into a trivia game to memorise what they learned.

The solution is here with Books Giant

Our team behind Books Giant believes that it’s not about whether or not our children use screens. It’s all about the how. How they are using it and how we can ensure that it’s for their benefit. We transform the screen from a source of braintrot information and attention span damaging content into an outlet for your children to share their stories.

You as a parent or a teacher, can easily monitor your child’s usage and even interact with them through Books Giant. Writing a book together or sending the child writing assignments can let you have more control and support the child’s development.

When Screen Time Becomes Creative Time

Every child has a story to tell and an endless amount of creativity and imagination. Yet addictive screen time takes away their precious time, instills negative habits and exposes them to less than ideal content. Something must change and unfortunately the screens themselves aren’t going anywhere.

With computers being such an integral part of our life, both for entertainment and education – it becomes more and more crucial to deliberately control, monitor and shape the way our screens interact with them. 

To us, Books Giant is the answer, which is why we brought it to the DACH region. We want every child to spend their precious time writing stories, expanding their imagination, improving their literacy skills and expressing themselves emotionally. Computers can enable all of these and so can AI, it just needs the right tool as well. And that’s exactly what Books Giant is all about.
