Balancing… Screen Time

Trying to figure out how to balance the realities of our modern world with safety and development? You aren’t alone!

Screen Time, our world on line, concerns & tools….

Some may want to just block all screens especially in the early years but I have learned as a parent and a teacher that for most of us this is an unattainable goal- screens are just too much a part of our world. Beyond their ubiquitous presence, screens are also a major tool in our society. So if we can not escape them why not learn to use and control them. I have been looking into different resources for our #kindermusikbysallycommunity to help us learn techniques to do just that.

Check the info out- and of course share with me (& our community here on this page) your thoughts on this content or if there are other creators/sites you find more helpful.
