A study that new technology is children's ability to a pencil or pen. The study is from the National Health Service in the UK. Researchers said that nowadays, children so much time swiping iPads or mobile phone screens that they cannot a pencil properly. Children are not pencils, so they now the muscle strength in their hands to be able to properly. Researcher Dr Sally Payne said: "Children are not into school with the hand strength and [ability] they had 10 years ago. Children coming into school are being a pencil but are increasingly not able to hold it because they don't have the fundamental movement skills."

The researchers said technology is the physical way that children write, draw or things. Children are using technology to create. Dr Payne why. She said: "It's easier to give a child an iPad than them to do muscle-building play such as building blocks, cutting and sticking, or pulling toys and ropes. Because of this, they're not the underlying foundation skills they need to grip and hold a pencil." Some experts say technology may causing bigger problems. One expert said if a child isn't strong enough to a pencil, perhaps their whole body is weak. She said it better for children's physical development to climb trees than to YouTube videos.
