Screen time advice
Evidence shows that screens have a big impact on children’s development in the Early Years. Restricting time children spend on screens at home and in early years settings supports healthy child development, which requires sufficient sleep, play, real-world interaction and responsive adult engagement. We are committed to choosing screen time to carefully and intentionally, for specific learning and development aims.
