Quick Review of “52 Ways to Connect with Your Smartphone Obsessed Kid”

In 52 Ways to Connect with your Smartphone Obsessed Kid, Jonathan McKee gives great practical tips to not only engage your child in off-screen conversation, but through the things they love like their favorite shows, video games, and music. Rather than shouting, “Get off that phone!,” McKee offers parents helpful discussion starters and meaningful, fun activities that will open the the doors of conversation between parents and their children.  Also included are ideas on how to monitor teens’ phone/tablet activity while also helping them learn technological responsibility. The book is divided into 52 bite-sized chapters, easy enough to read just one a day! I highly recommend this book for every parent of a tween or teen!
