Interactivity:

Recently traveling by airplane for spring break, I was surrounded by children lulled by iPads and iPhones. I remember the days when my brother and sister and I had to play Go-Fish and I Spy in long car and airplane rides, but now young children are entertained by phones, movies, and interactive games and websites. I found an article about a study conducted by Boston University about the good, the bad and the unknown impacts on children due to interactive media. 

The study found that although interactive learning games and Apps available on iPhones and iPads can be useful for educating children, but the way parents are using this media and devices to distract children and take them out of reality. I thought it was interesting to think about that now-a-days, children are so dependent on computers and media and games for entertainment that they are less inclined to turn to actual humans for entertainment.

You can find the article here and see if  you agree or disagree or are going to take that iPhone from your baby's hand right now... or is it too late?
