Hi,
1)Myopia can be corrected with laser surgery. You can plan it once your glass number stabilizes. (-1 is a very small power though) Please consult local ophthalmologist for complete eye evaluation. They will guide you further.
2) try to minimise your kids screen time and go for regular eye check up.
