Device Free Dinner

A movement for healthy habits the whole family will love.

From the Sesame Street family to yours: Try a #DeviceFreeDinner tonight!


video-here

Why go device-free?

Taking a break from devices is proven to have positive benefits for kids, from better nutrition and focus at home to fewer problems at school. Check out our latest research on digital well-being to get started.

Why Device-Free Dinners Are a Healthy Choice

Technology offers plenty of benefits and opportunities for families, but nothing replaces face-to-face time with the ones we love.

Dealing with Devices: The Parent-Teen Dynamic

Are we addicted? Common Sense polled over 1,200 parents and teens to find out how the saturation of mobile devices in family life is playing out in homes and child-parent relationships.

Supporters

Going device-free takes teamwork. Our global media partners make all this possible.

 
 
 

Common Sense is the nation's leading nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of all kids and families by providing the trustworthy information, education, and independent voice they need to thrive in the 21st century.
