Great Ideas to Implement into my Home
This audiobook had me laughing because it’s so relatable! As a mom outnumbered with four kids, I found it to be a game-changer. Managing screen time has always been a challenge in our house, its a daily battle. This book throws in some much-needed humor. I was worrying a lot about how to manage this problem and the strategies in this book are simple and practical. Gives me some hope. I loved the creative offline activity ideas—fun, doable, and often budget-friendly! The section on raising respectful "digital citizens" gave me a fresh perspective on building better habits. I even had my kids listen to parts of it so they could hear it from someone other than me! I’ve already decided to gift this book to a few of my friends who are in the same boat—it’s a great resource for anyone feeling overwhelmed by screens taking over the household.

Informative and Humorous at the same time
It was such an enjoyable, easy listening audiobook. I laughed out loud at the audiobook and nodded along with the practical guidance. When you’re a parent, having kids and screen time can be stressful, but this audiobook was easier. The jokes were great. The author gave me funny, real life stories about parenting that reminded me I wasn’t the only crazy person in the world. Meanwhile, the suggestions were very straightforward and encouraged me to experiment with new methods with my children.

Every Parent Should Read This!
The TV screen has long served as a babysitter, but with the rise of devices, video games, and smartphones, the screen world has taken over. Avery provides practical advice and strategies to counter this takeover in our children's lives, along with effective alternatives. One of my favorites, which I plan to use with my grandchildren, is starting with "once upon a time…"
The author also covers topics such as age-appropriate content, the effects of screen time on emotional and mental health, and collaborating with schools and educators. Additionally, Avery offers insights into emerging technologies, giving readers a heads-up on what’s next. This book would make a thoughtful and useful baby shower gift!

Laugh-Out-Loud Tips for Tackling Screen Time
This book is a refreshing blend of humour and sound advice, perfect for parents navigating the digital age. The anecdotes are so relatable they had me chuckling out loud, and the tips feel practical without being preachy. I especially enjoyed how the author embraces flexibility, acknowledging that every family’s situation is unique. My only quibble is that the suggestions for older children could’ve been a bit more detailed. Still, it’s a brilliant and entertaining read for parents looking to reclaim balance in their homes.
