Your child's academic success may start with their screen time as infants, study says | CNN
Mounting evidence shows screens aren't great for kids. And a new study has revealed that even as infants, too much screen time can impact executive function development. Experts explain what to do instead.
Hasnain says:
“The parents reported each child's screen time, and researchers found there was an association between screen time in infancy and attention and executive function at 9 years old, according to the study.
Further research needs to be done, however, to determine if the screen time caused the impairments in executive function or if there are other factors in the child's environment that predispose them to both more screen time and poorer executive functioning, the study noted.”
