Family Media Use

by

With the access to media literally at our fingertips, often parents wonder about the right amount of time for a child to have access to screens. Different sources have different opinions about this, and the American Academy of Pediatrics has developed a few tools to assist families in figuring out the balance based on each family’s personal lifestyle and values.

Check out this link to access the Family Media Use Plan as well as the Media Time Calculator. These tools allow you to create personalized plans not only for your family but also for individual children, based on their separate needs.

Below is an example of how your child’s media plan may look.

With our clients', their families', our staff members', and their families' health in mind, our office is now offering telehealth therapy options.  Some therapists may be offering limited in-person sessions as well.  In-person sessions are only offered with additional precautions in place to better manage Covid-19 risk concerns.

Please feel free to reach out to our office or your provider via email, text, or phone if you would like to schedule an appointment.
