    What’s the deal with screens?

    Emma teams up once again with the experts at BabyLab to tackle one of the most common challenges that parents face when raising a child. How should we use (or not use) screens in the home? She chats with two parents who have very different approaches when it comes to screen use in their lives, and learns some of the benefits that come with both perspectives. Plus she digs into the science of how a screen stimulates the brain with Dr Genevieve Quek.
