This news is going to provide a LOT of relief to all the parents out there feeling guilty for the massive amounts of screen time their kids got these past few months.
According to a new study out of the University of Bath in England, screen time isn't bad for your kids . . . and it might actually be GOOD for them.
Quote, "There's been growing concern that toddler touchscreen use may negatively impact their developing attention, but this fear is not based on empirical evidence."
The researchers found that toddlers who used touchscreens had BETTER attention spans as they got older.
Of course, this doesn't really mean you should give your kid an iPad for eight hours a day . . . the researchers say they still need to know if, quote, "this attention difference is advantageous or detrimental to their everyday life."
But it does mean that maybe . . . just maybe . . . you can feel a little less guilty about giving your kids screen time.
