You want the very best for your child and are determined to do it right. Perhaps you dream of an almost screen-free upbringing. But you also feel the digital world tugging at your sleeve. Because what if a screen does appear? Is that harmful by definition? And how do you ensure that you remain in control, and not the device? In this presentation 'Raising babies, toddlers, and preschoolers in screen times' , we start from the basics of what young children really need: proximity, interaction, and rhythm. We compare the advice of the Hoge Gezondheidsraad and the WHO, and—more importantly—we dive into the why behind these guidelines. This way, you understand not only the rules but also the logic. We provide you with clear insights to translate this theory into your parenting style. We show you how to avoid pitfalls (such as passive zombie time) and how to steer screen use, should it occur, toward three valuable pillars: creating, learning, and having fun. You will go home with: Concrete anchors to consciously choose content and moments that maintain peace at home. Inspiring examples of screen activities that stimulate creativity and connection (instead of replacing them). Feasible agreements that work, even on days when life doesn't go as planned.
