Screen Time & Growing Minds: What the Science Tells Us is an event taking place on Sunday, October 19, 2025 in the Upper Valley.
This event is held at Quechee, VT.
Join us at VINS Nature Center for an essential conversation about one of today’s most challenging parenting topics: social media, phone use, and creating healthy digital boundaries for our children.
Dr.
Bill Hudenko, a professor at Dartmouth College, Geisel School of Medicine and Chief Clinical Officer of Jimini Health, will kick off a series of events designed for all parents—whether your children haven’t yet entered the digital world or are already navigating smartphones and social media.
Dr.
Hudenko will ground us in the science: what we know about how young brains respond to phone use and evidence-based insights on healthy technology boundaries for families.
This event launches a new series of ongoing discussions hosted at VINS, providing a judgment-free environment where we can connect and learn together.
Whether you’re dreading the phone conversation or already managing devices daily in your house, this is an invitation to join other Upper Valley families for real conversations about the challenges we all face.
No perfect parents required—just caring ones doing their best in our digital age.
