This book was released on 2019-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's never been a better time to learn. Several years ago, the word Edutainment was introduced--it's the idea of learning through games and other activities. What better way to learn than the iPad, right? Kind of. The iPad is an amazing learning device but handing it over to a child with no restrictions gives them access to the world...and all the evils in it. This book is twofold. One, it teaches parents how to use the iPad; even if you've used it before, there's probably going to be a few things that you never knew. Two, it teaches parents how to safe-guard the device and ensure their child only sees and does what you want them to. It will teach you how to set app limits, turn on and off privacy features, and block certain websites. In short, it will teach you how to customize the iPad so it's fit for your parenting style. It's based off of the newest iPad's that lack a physical Home button, but if you have another iPad, most of the features are in the same exact place. Ready to get started? Let's go!

Book excerpt: TODDLERS ON TECHNOLOGY Does your toddler seem to know more about the iPad than you do? Welcome to the world of the Digitods: the young children born into the era of mobile technology. These kids are learning faster and better than any generation that has come before them. And they are loving it! Take a look at toddlers using an iPad. They are pictures of concentration. Their hands are moving and their eyes are constantly scanning the screen. They are in an active state of learning: their neurons are firing on all cylinders! It is not surprising that they find learning such an enjoyable activity, with the bright colors, interesting activities and cheery voices urging them on. Have you ever tried getting a Digitods attention when he is working with an iPad? It is not easy. Often, the child is so fixated on the work that he protests when he has to move on, even to something as interesting as a snack. It just underscores what teachers have always known. Good learning is addictive: the more you get, the more you want. Digitods are racing down the information superhighway and we have to be ready for them! But what does this entail? The answer to this ever-important question lies within. Patti Wollman Summers has written the first book on the subject by an early child-hood educator. Ms. Summers collaborates with Heather Ibrahim-Leathers, a mom who provides many practical tips, and Ann DeSollar-Hale, PhD, a neuropsychologist who gives a full account of the research so far in our Science section. Learn why interacting with an app is so fascinating to a young child. Discover what constitutes a good app, and how to match an app to your childs temperament and learning style. Read a description of many excellent apps in our App Reviews section, and learn how to balance your childs digital work with real-life, see-saw activities.
