Cut Kids Screen Time! 

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Pedagogy — Nursery Pedagogy, Early Childhood Education, , language: English, abstract: The first two years of life are especially important in the growth and development of any child’s brain. During this time, children need good, positive interaction with other children and adults to develop good language and social skills. Learning to talk and play with others is far more important than watching television. Parents should stop using television as a babysitter. If parents need free time for themselves to read magazine or when moms need a free hand to get a laundry from a dryer is much better to record a story read by them, and then play those recordings for their children, instead of seating them in from of a screen.
