The youngest among us are no strangers to digital technology. Yet families and educators are inundated with conflicting advice about screen time. On one hand, companies promise that media can boost children’s intelligence while on the other, pediatricians urge screen time limits in the early years. In this workshop, Erin Walsh will cut through conflicting information and translate the latest research into easy-to-understand language for parents and early childhood educators. Using stories, warmth, and humor Erin will share ways that technology can both help and hurt children’s learning and development and explore practical strategies for helping young children thrive in a world dominated by screens.
