Much of what young childrent do – touching, tasting, and staring at things – is actually about the exploring world around them, making mistakes, learning from the consequences, and adjusting their behavior. Just as they learn that the picture of a kitten in a book isn’t a real kitten they will learn that magazines aren’t iPhones and require them to interact differently with it. If this girl can’t eventually learn to distinguish between a printed picture and an image on a smart phone the problem is much more fundamental than the advance of digital technology.

#1 She doesn’t seem to know how to “work” either.
#2 Maybe kids shouldn’t playing with an iPad that young.

I am pro-electronics, but this video humbly shows the error of parents in today’s world. We must not forget to foster their creativity in the electronic age. Creativity which is born from their own hands.. not electronic pixels. How about a plain cardboard box and crayons for entertainment?!
