Parent Information Night: Kids & Technology; Hosted by Bay Presbyterian Preschool.

Parents of preschool and elementary age children are invited to join us on Monday, September 23 from 6:30pm to 8:00pm in the Sanctuary to learn how screen time is impacting child development. Presented by Julie Fenton (a pediatric speech-language pathologist at Cleveland Clinic Therapy Services for nearly 20 years). 

Topics covered include the impact on children's brains and bodies, play, parenting, education, social media, predators/pornography and more. You will walk away with practical resources to feel more equipped to manage screen time in your own home.

Time for questions will be embedded throughout the presentation as well as a Q & A at the end.
