Face to Face: Cultivating Kids’ Social Lives in Today’s Digital World by Family Empowerment Network

The message of “Face to Face” is simple yet profound: Increase actual face-to-face connection and keep childhood REAL so children will be resilient, healthy, and happy. Major focuses of the book include how digital technology is influencing children’s lives and how resiliency and other social/emotional skills need special attention as parents navigate this new terrain. Authored by a team of pediatricians and educators, this book is a goldmine of neuroscience-based information for parents.

Why we like it: I really liked the layout of the materials and how the information was presented in a clear manner. I also really enjoyed the activities and suggestions that were provided for each chapter.
