In It: Raising Kids Who Learn Differently
Kids & Family:Parenting
Breaks from school are prime time for screen time. But how much screen time is too much? And what can we do about it? Is screen time ever a good thing?
In this episode of “In It,” Gretchen Vierstra and Rachel Bozek talk to Dr. Devorah Heitner. Devorah is the author of two books: Screenwise: Helping Kids Thrive (and Survive) in Their Digital World and Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in a Digital World. She also speaks about screens at K-12 schools.
Listen to learn tips for managing screen time, and why this can be harder with kids with learning and thinking differences. Find out some benefits of screen time too.
