Description
In the fast-paced world of smartphones, tablets, and endless digital distractions, Henry's Tech-Free Trip is the first and only children's book to create a narrative around screen time and its potentially negative effects. This relatable tale follows Henry, a curious child navigating the world of technology.
Made for kids 5-10 years old, this book not only engages young readers with its amusing plot but also equips parents with essential tools to navigate the challenges of today's tech-savvy world. Through Henry's endearing journey, readers are reminded of the fun that can be had when we choose to put screens away.
Based on the family of co-author Kylen Ribeiro, Henry's Tech-Free Trip narrates the conversation between Kylen and her own children about staying mindful of screen time and enjoying technology in moderation, to limit exposure to blue light and EMF radiation–the "invisible energy that leaks from electronic devices."
