Paper books lead to a better shared experience than tablets when toddlers and parents read together, a new study says. The reason? Tablets more often lead to conflict between parent and child, with both trying to control the devices.
would do well to choose an old-fashioned book over a newfangled e-reader, a new study argues.
"In this study, print books were great for promoting an environment that was rich with reciprocity, but the tablet appeared to create some conflict between parents and toddlers who were both trying to control the tablet," Munzer said. This act of sharing"creates moments of joy, and is the foundation for child development. It is how children learn new words, gain emotional competence, and builds on their problem-solving abilities," Munzer said."Social reciprocity is how relationships are nurtured and is important for our future generation's development and achievement."
The researchers found differences in nonverbal communication from both parents and children when engaging with a tablet, Munzer said. "These behaviors may interfere with the back-and-forth engagement between parents and children," Munzer said.Pediatricians often stress the beneficial aspects of reading with your toddler, including better language development and more positive social interactions, said Dr. David Fagan, vice chair of pediatrics at Cohen Children's Medical Center in New Hyde Park, N.Y.
