Toddler brains engage more with books than screens, EEG study finds
Original: Toddlers’ brains engage more during books and puzzles with parents than movies, first-of-its-kind EEG stu
A first-of-its-kind EEG study found that toddlers' brains show more engagement when reading books or doing puzzles with their parents than when watching movies. The findings add to growing evidence that interactive activities with caregivers support early brain development far more than passive screen time, even when the content is aimed at young children.
Why now: Parents are concerned about screen time effects on early childhood development, making new brain research on toddlers highly relevant.
