Screen Time Is Not Forever / El Tiempo de Pantalla No Es Para Siempre Board Book

Beschreibung

Help young children learn to limit screen time and fun ways to spend "screens-off" time. As important as screens are in our lives, we all need to unplug, especially children. This active, encouraging English-Spanish bilingual board book offers young children and families an easy way to set boundaries and limit screen time, and to find enjoyable ways to spend time without screens. "Together, we say, 'All done.' Now follow up with something fun." Screen time is important for learning and can be helpful and fun, but it's important for toddlers to learn that screen time can't be all the time. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends consistent limits on screen time for young children. With her trademark mix of empathy and encouragement, author Elizabeth Verdick offers appealing and healthy alternatives to using screens, like singing, swinging, or playing pretend! The book ends with additional ideas and activities in both English and Spanish to help adults navigate screen time with toddlers and preschoolers. Best Behavior series Simple words and lively full-color illustrations guide children to choose positive behaviors. Select titles are available in two versions: a durable board book for ages 1-4 and an expanded paperback for ages 4-7. Bilingual board book and paperback editions of all titles also are available. Kids, parents, and teachers love these award-winning books. All include helpful tips for teachers, caregivers, and parents.
