At a recent conference, I was reminded that technology use among kids is not the worst thing. When S was a baby, I thought it was. The AAP was telling me, anyway. Since then, they have loosened the recommendation for screen time with kids.
I have found that learning shows and apps are the best screen time S can get. It engages him, stimulates his brain, and he learns while giving me some time to get things done… or simply relax for a bit.
An app he has recently started using is Reading Eggs. Reading Eggs is a popular multi-award winning reading program for children aged 2-13 that helps them learn to read. This program is the perfect tool to help get kids back into learning this school year.
S loves the app – he plays the activities and loves getting things right. The app even tells him he’s done an “amazing” job. He turned to me once after it had said that, and said “Mom, I did amazing!” What a confidence booster!
