224 - Screen Time vs. Story Time: Bridging the Gap in Early Language Development
As screens become a staple in daily life, many 3-year-olds in the U.S. are spending 3-4 hours a day engaged with devices, potentially missing out on vital language experiences. This trend can result in children losing exposure to over 1,500 words daily, leading to significant gaps in essential skills like phonological awareness and phonemic skills by the time they enter kindergarten. For childcare owners, understanding and addressing this issue is crucial not only for child development but also for meeting the needs of parents seeking quality education and care. Join us as we unpack the implications of excessive screen time and discuss effective strategies for fostering rich language interactions at home and in your center.
