The World Health Organisation, for the first time ever, last week laid out new guidlines for the amount of time children under 5 should spend on digital devices. According to the organisation, children under the age of 1 should have no screen time at all, while children under 5 should have no more than one hour a day.

Speaking to Sofija Petrovic is Dr. Joanne Orlando, digital literacy expert, educator and researcher.
