Innovation Station LLC has created a screen time policy, with CDC recommendations in mind. We believe it’s important for parents to be conscious of the impact that too much screen time can have on their children's overall well-being, as well as their ability to grow healthy relationships with friends and family.
Infants-Twos:
Innovation Station firmly believes that children ranging in age from birth to 35 months are provided with zero minutes of screen time while attending the program. Screen time at this age can be overstimulating, distracting, and create a distance between child and faculty. Innovation Station sees this as harmful to a child’s brain development.
Preschool-Kindergarten:
Innovation Station firmly believes that children ranging in age 36 months to 60 months are provided with less than 60 minutes of screen time per week while attending the program. Children at this age can be introduced to screens, but it is limited. Innovation Station’s use of screen time would be through Ipods, Ipads, tablets, or a computer.
School-Age:
Innovation Station firmly believes that children 5 years or older are provided with less than 90 minutes of screen time per day while attending the program. Innovation Station allows children the use of screen time through Ipods, Ipads, tablets, or a computer. This time can be spent on educational games or to complete one's homework.
