Our Approach to Media
At Two Rivers Farm School, we are dedicated to nurturing children’s imagination, emotional growth, independent thinking, creativity, and joyful engagement with the world around them. We believe children learn best through direct experiences—playing, exploring, moving, creating, working, and building relationships in the real world.
Research, together with our many years of experience working with children, has demonstrated that limiting screen exposure supports attention, emotional regulation, healthy sleep, creativity, physical activity, and meaningful social interaction. Reduced screen time also protects space for children to create their own stories and games, engage cooperatively with others, and participate fully in the school experience.
As part of this approach, we maintain a screen-free school and families are asked to avoid screen-based entertainment—including television, movies, online videos, video games, tablets, and similar media—during the school week.
This policy is not intended as a judgment of families or technology. It reflects our commitment to preserving childhood as a time centered on imagination, relationships, meaningful work, movement, and direct engagement with the world.
