“Let's Grow Brain P.O.W.E.R.! is a joyful reminder that the most powerful brain-building tool available is not a device, it's the everyday human moments of play, work, and connection that make up a childhood. Rather than dwelling on technology's potential threats, it shows kids and parents alike what to reach for instead.”
