Replacing screen time with social emotional learning, self-regulation, and problem solving skills

Do you think you or your children are spending too much time staring at a screen? Do you sometimes use the phone as a pacifier to keep your kids calm and quiet? Ever wonder what long-term effects too much screen time may have on your future? Today's Shape Shorts guest, Nicole Rawson, is the founder of Screen Time Clinic, an international network of digital wellness educators empowering families and businesses to reach their ideal level of functioning by clarifying priorities and creating healthy habits. She is a lifelong advocate for education, a former teacher, a children's book author, and a single mother of two teens. With 22 years of teaching and being a parent and step-parent, Nicole knows all the challenges of the different stages of life. She has a passion for helping families reconnect through reduced screen time and is on the podcast today to share with us how appropriate limitations of screen time can lead to some huge gains in social emotional learning, self-regulation, and problem solving for children of all ages, and adults too!
