Summary

The study explores the relationship between screen time and children's social-emotional development. Amidst rising technology use, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, understanding its potential long-term effects on children's social skills is crucial. Existing studies often focus on physical or psychological impacts, overlooking the specific influence on social interactions. Through extensive research I will put together an informative and simple brochure for parents involving some easy steps to improve screen habits and mitigate the harmful effects of screen time, especially how to improve social interactions. My aim is to help inform parents on how to reduce the risks associated with screen use and ensure that kids are getting the social emotional experience they need to learn and grow.
