How do we help young children navigate a world full of screens? Join us for an engaging, research-based session with Erin Walsh that blends science, stories, and humor to cut through the confusion surrounding screen time and explore how technology affects young children’s developing brains. You’ll leave with practical strategies to help children thrive. This session is especially relevant for parents, caregivers, and educators of children in early childhood through 3rd grade.
Erin Walsh, a nationally recognized speaker and educator, will share practical strategies to help children thrive both online and offline.
