Overview

Kids today are surrounded by screens. Phones at the dinner table. Tablets in the car. Endless videos competing for attention. And many parents are starting to notice something troubling: Kids are losing patience, focus, and the ability to entertain themselves. In Going Analog, teacher Liz Zeglin explores why boredom, quiet attention, and real-world experiences still matter more than ever for children growing up in a digital world. Drawing on classroom experience, research, and everyday family stories, this thoughtful guide helps parents understand how technology is shaping children's attention, creativity, and resilience. But this is not a call to throw away every device. Instead, Going Analog offers a balanced, practical approach to helping kids build the skills screens can't teach. Inside you'll discover: - why boredom is essential for creativity - how attention and reading stamina develop - why frustration builds resilience - how screen habits affect learning and behavior - when kids should get their first phone - simple ways families can reset their relationship with technology Through small challenges and everyday moments-reading a book, drawing, walking outside, building something with your hands-children develop patience, curiosity, and confidence. Technology isn't the enemy. But childhood still needs space for imagination, conversation, and discovery. Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply... look up. If you want to help your child build focus, creativity, and resilience in a screen-filled world, Going Analog will show you where to start.
