In this episode we talk with Marlena Gross-Taylor about how to establish screen time policies and routines that will carry them into their lifetimes. We also talk about the ways that schools have had to change because of the pandemic.

Marlena Gross-Taylor is an amazing school leader and founder of Edugladiators. They are all about doing what is best for kids. Marlena has been a friend of mine for years, she is also an author, speaker, and consultant.
