We get it...

Tablets are easy.
Tablets are "mess free."
Tablets keep your child occupied.

And Tablet companies (and apps) make lots of money selling the idea of "optimal learning" and "education."

But the reality is, tablets significantly interfere with and actually hurt holistic development and learning. Tablets offer an isolating, passive, and sedentary experience, which completely contradicts how children authentically learn (e.g. connection, exploration among materials + senses, and movement).

Tablets prevent children from learning how to navigate independently, self-occupy, and self-regulate. Tablets reduce attention span, as well as critical and creative thinking skills. Tablets reduce communication and connection. Tablets keep children quiet and sedentary, where they should be asking "why?!" and outside trying to climb trees.

THESE skills and experiences are what builds stronger brains, bodies, and hearts, which significantly contributes to how children will not only feel about themselves, but how they will navigate the world, indefinitely!
