What's your thoughts

My son, who is 10, had a flip phone, and it started having issues, so I asked his dad over the weekend to get him another. I asked for him to get another flip phone, but he gave him an old smartphone he had. So my question is, is it appropriate for a 10 year old to have a smartphone?

Activities for an explorer!

What activities do people do with their babes who just love running and exploring? He doesn't want to stay in the library or groups and will escape if he can. He loves the park (isn't bothered about swings etc, just loves climbing and running) but I just wanted other ideas. Thank you

Screen time guilt

My so first daughter is 17 months and we’ve managed this whole time with no screen time (phones/ iPads/ TV)… she goes to a Montessori nursery who don’t advocate screens and I have my husband at home too so it’s much easier to do this! Now my second daughter is here I feel like I could really do with some extra time...
