Every year our relationship with screens intensifies as more of our lives move online. At the same time, parents are getting conflicting advice about the impact of screen time on children’s development and wellbeing. Parents are left with questions like, “Is technology connecting kids or isolating them?” and, “How much is too much?” In this interactive and energizing presentation, Erin Walsh will use brain science, stories, and humor to cut through conflicting messages about screen time and kids. Erin will walk you through the latest evidence and deliver the key protective factors for digital wellbeing from early childhood through early adolescence (PS-8th grade). You will leave feeling capable and motivated to help your child avoid online harms and build on their digital strengths.
