In this video, Elmo’s Mom, Mae, talks with an expert about having a healthy “digital diet.” The term “digital diet” is a playful way to talk about how much—and what type—of digital content a person, child, or family consumes. The American Academy of Pediatrics calls this a “Family Media Use Plan,” and offers recommendations for young children, such as limiting the amount of screen-time, making sure they’re watching age-appropriate, high-quality, and educational content, co-viewing as much as possible, and finding plenty of screen-free activities to support children’s growing bodies and minds!
