Technology for Babies and Toddlers: How do you feel about it? More

I love to use technology as a tool to help teach my twins the academic basics. Whether we like it or not technology is the future and I chose to embrace it. Using a mouse or their pointer finger on the ipad/ipod touch devices, all assist with their gross & fine motor development. My husband and I sit with them and assist with the learning, we don't let technology replace human interaction. It also gives us an opportunity to bond with them and share in their learning experiences. My husband and I also schedule days and times of the week in which we allow are sons to use their electronic devices. We are able to keep them engage and excited about learning.

Everything is best in moderation! Our kids love to borrow our phones to play on when we're waiting somewhere or having to run errands. As long as they're not glued to them all the time (and still get outside playtime), it's all good. They do tend to get into stuff that they shouldn't though, I found this app that does a nice job of keeping them safe on our phones: Everything is best in moderation!
