Great to see Govt publish the evidence base underlying their advice on screen time usage for under 5 year olds. Will outline the headline things they flag (just pulling from their subheads, but to save you looking at the full report) www.gov.uk/government/p...

Screen use by children aged under 5

The findings and recommendations of the Early Years Screen Time Advisory Group on the effects of all types of screen use in the early years of childhood.

A yellow movie poster titled "The Baby Factory is Closed" features a gloved hand holding a scalpel. The text is bold, with festival accolades. The tone is intriguing and thought-provoking.
