In today’s episode, we are joined by Tracie, a speech-language pathologist.

• What a study found with regard to screen time and a child's cognitive abilities (link below) 
• What is Tracie’s take on Cocomelon and how the characters speak?
• Why is screen time not recommended before the age of 18 months?
• What can parents do if their child is already getting screen time under 2?
• How does language actually develop?
