What advice would you give someone younger than you about using devices?

Watch “Small Talk: Technology” (3-min video) by CBC Kids to hear a range of views about digital technology.

Discuss:

• One kid says technology helps us stay in touch with each other. Another mentions that technology helps her learn new information. What good things are in your life because of technology? (Sharing funny videos, watching shows together, playing games, doing Uplift, etc.)
• One of the kids says, “If you keep staying on your phone the whole time, you’re going to miss what life’s really about.” What kinds of things is she talking about? Do you ever feel like technology causes you to miss what life’s really about? How can you find better balance?
