What does the latest research tell us about how young minds are adapting to advanced tech tools? In Common Sense's new report, "The Common Sense Census: Media Use by Kids Zero to Eight, 2024," we explore how the youngest users are experiencing media and technology—from gaming and AI to reels and reading—and how parents can help their little ones establish healthy habits. In this virtual well visit, our experts will share tips from professional practice and personal experience on how to role-model, find quality content, and use tech together as a family for balanced digital well-being.
