Tiny Humans, Big Tech: Navigating Screens in Early Childhood

In today’s digital world, screens are part of children’s daily lives—but how do they shape early learning, development, and behavior? This class explores the latest research on screen use in infancy through early elementary years, translating evidence into practical guidance for educators and caregivers. Participants will examine how screen time affects attention, language, social-emotional growth, and executive function, and learn strategies for creating healthy media habits in homes and classrooms. Through discussion, real-world examples, and reflective activities, attendees will gain tools to evaluate digital content, balance screen use with play-based learning, and partner with families on developmentally informed tech practices. Whether you’re an educator, administrator, or parent, this session provides a balanced, research-driven approach to supporting young children in a digital age. @public
