From Passive Scrolling to Active Learning: How to Take Your Child from Consuming to Creating
From Passive Scrolling to Active Learning: How to Take Your Child from Consuming to Creating
Co-hosted by Curious Cardinals parent Dorothy Duncan
Between TikTok, Roblox, and now AI tools like ChatGPT, kids are flooded with endless digital inputs. Too often, this leads to passive scrolling, shorter attention spans, and less time spent discovering what excites them most. But with the right guidance, technology can become a springboard for curiosity instead of a trap for distraction.
Join us for an inspiring workshop on how to help your child move from consumption to creation.
You’ll discover:
Why mentorship is the missing link between kids’ online interests and real-world passions
How top students are transforming screen time into award-winning projects and creative breakthroughs
The “curiosity formula” that turns aimless scrolling into meaningful exploration
Practical steps parents can take to help kids reclaim control of their tech habits
You’ll hear firsthand from a Curious Cardinals parent who’s seen this transformation—and learn how your child can experience it, too.
By the end of this free 45-minute workshop, you’ll see how human connection and mentorship can shift the narrative from “too much screen time” to “look what my child is building.”
