The 5 Cs of Media Use

The 5 C’s of media use are based on the child, the content,

ways to calm down, what media is crowding out and ongoing

communication. 5 C’s guidance for each age group starts with

information about the developmental stages kids are going through

and how this influences media use. It also describes healthy media

habits to strive for at home. You can use these to build upon how

you’re already connecting with your kids.
