Are you wondering if your preschooler should be exposed to technology at an early age, and if so, how much? As a parent, do you want to know how best to use technology as a learning tool for your child, or what skills your child needs for the future economy as the workplace evolves?
Technology has impacted every aspect of our lives, and continues to develop, shift and change at an incredibly fast rate. Children’s increasing use of technology has been well documented, with much debate over how healthy screen time is for children.
Find out how technology influences your preschooler, and how you can help them flourish in a tech-driven world at the British Council’s early childhood seminar, Raising the Future: The Tech Generation.
