First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looked at 70 children aged 24 to 36 months to see if the way they use tablets (playing games vs. watching videos) affects their thinking, movement, and language skills. Over 16 weeks, one group used tablets actively with games, while the other watched content passively. The goal is to help parents and educators understand how to offer screen time in a way that supports healthy development.
