About this listen

Need a few moments to yourself? Before turning to screen time, let’s explore some thoughtful options! In this episode, Mama Martha shares how she approached limited screen use while raising her children—and what she's learning now with her young granddaughter. We dive into research on the effects of screen time on toddler brain development and the value of setting healthy limits. Plus, we discuss creative ways to make reading fun and meaningful, turning books into opportunities for bonding and lasting memories.
