What is the Learning Adventure Island website all about?
Engaging with social media platforms and new, emerging online technologies can have both positive and negative effects on children.
Many studies show that popular social media apps like You Tube, TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat impact a child’s brain in different ways than from other forms of media…and the damage from the negative effects can be long-term and irrevocable.
On the other hand, defenders have shown that online educational media can have positive effects on children’s minds—especially with content that is entertaining, informative, and helps children gain a better understanding of their world.
The Learning Adventure Island website is all about inspiring and motivating children to read, helping them learn valuable life skills, and empowering them with positive self-esteem. The website also promotes the development of positive character traits, core family values, and encourages family members to build a home library and create a learning environment in the home.
