Long screen time hinders infants' development

September 4, 2023

Researchers have found that infants who spend more than four hours a day in front of screens experience delays in the development of communication skills, fine motor skills, and problem-solving abilities. The results were based on surveys filled out by parents of nearly 8000 young children. However, only 4% of children spend more than 4 hours a day in front of screens, 18% spend 2 to 4 hours, and the rest spend less than 2 hours.
