DESC says digital devices are just one part of a much broader learning experience
The education minister says play is just as important for a child's development as technology.
It comes after Manx charity Isle of Play called on government to put a policy in place to protect a child's right to play following concerns over the amount of time youngsters spend looking at screens.
The Department of Education, Sport and Culture told Manx Radio it recognises the importance of play-based learning and that technology is one part of a much broader learning experience.
Sarah Maltby says facilities for play in the Island's school are popular with the pupils:
