The rapid development of digital tools, their generalizations and their undeniable advantages make screens very present in our daily lives. The results of studies on the negative impact of the excessive use of screens on the neuropsychological development of very young children should lead health professionals to be concerned by their position in the prevention of these disorders.

The information of parents about the effects of excessive use of screens by their young children is today at the center of media campaigns through conferences, articles in the mainstream press, and interviews including famous scientists and early childhood professionals. These campaigns should be relayed by the health professionals caring for young children.
