Hey there, friends. Let’s talk about something that a lot of us can relate to: balancing a busy life with quality family time. Iconic supermodel Gisele Bundchen knows this struggle all too well. As a mom of three and someone who's juggled a high-octane Hollywood career, she's found a way to stay connected with her family despite the chaos. Recently, Gisele opened up about how she recharges at home with her husband, NFL legend Tom Brady, and their kids, Jack, Ben, and Vivian.
Screen Time Rules: How Gisele Keeps Her Family Grounded
In an interview with Marie Claire published on March 12, Gisele, now 39, shared her thoughts on technology and social media. "Our family tries to limit the amount of screen time," she said. "Technology and social media can be powerful tools for spreading positivity and awareness, but it's crucial to stay mindful of how we use them." It's all about balance, folks. While the kids have access to an iPad for movies or games, there's a strict time limit. "We want them to enjoy it without letting it take over their day," Gisele explained.
Encouraging Creativity and Play
Gisele’s approach to raising her kids is all about fostering creativity and staying active. Instead of plopping down in front of the TV or diving into video games, she encourages her children to play together and get outside as much as possible. "When they tell me they're bored, I tell them that's a good thing," she said with a laugh. "It gives them space to think of something new to do." And guess what? It doesn't take long before Jack, 12, Ben, 10, and Vivian, 7, come up with their own games or activities. "Within minutes, they're running around the house laughing and having the time of their lives," Gisele shared.

Each child has their own unique interests too. "Benny can spend hours drawing at his desk, while Vivi loves playing in her room with her horses and Care Bears," she added. It's this kind of freedom that helps them grow into curious, imaginative individuals.
Setting Boundaries at Night
While Gisele believes in giving her kids freedom during the day, she and Tom have set clear boundaries when it comes to electronics at night. "In our home, we don't allow screens at the dinner table or in bed," she revealed. "This is our time to reconnect as a family and talk about our day." She understands the importance of technology but stresses the need for moderation. "It's all about finding the right balance," she emphasized.
Family Bonding: A Day in the Saddle
Gisele and Tom proved just how much they value family time when they took the kids horseback riding on March 10. The Brazilian beauty shared a series of heartwarming videos from the outing on Instagram, showing the family bonding over a shared adventure. "It was such a fun day," she gushed. "There's nothing better than spending quality time with the ones you love."
