ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Let’s talk about The Crucial Years, screens, and summertime—because this is hands-down one of the most common concerns I hear from parents.
Screen time gets especially tricky in the summer, when routines loosen up, camps come and go, and kids suddenly have a lot more unstructured time.
We know that too much screen time is linked to increased anxiety and depression—and right now, the average child is spending nearly five hours a day on screens.
In this video, I’m sharing some practical thoughts on how to create a healthier balance this summer, whether you're navigating long car rides, slow afternoons, or just looking to make more room for creativity, boredom, and connection.
Let’s dive in!
