Parent + educator video series:
Screens in Early Childhood
It’s never too early to teach healthy tech habits!
We live in a digital world and young children are increasingly engaging in screen-based media use from infancy. This raises many questions about the impacts on brain, language and social skill development. Join me to learn the essentials all parents should know about screen time for kids aged 6 months to 6 years.
In this fear, shame and guilt-free webinar series, parents will learn practical skills to help toddlers and pre-schoolers use digital devices in healthful and meaningful ways.
Week One
Understanding brain development of a toddler and early digital experiences.
Week Three
Principles of positive digital parenting and building healthful digital habits.
Week Two
Impacts of screen-based media use on social skills and language acquisition.
Week Four
Selecting appropriate apps and games for your child and setting up technology use agreements.
