Media Exposure During Infancy
A great deal of research has been conducted on the effects of exposing infants to television and DVDs.
Some claim that watching TV can enhance cognitive development and promote education, while others indicate that early exposure can have a negative effect on babies’ attention span development.
Conduct additional research and discuss your thoughts. Based on your findings, would you recommend that parents and daycare providers allow infants access to television and movies? Explain why or why not.
