The Bedtime Boost project was directly inspired by the foundational insights about toddler development and digital technology use made during the TABLET project. See how our work in this area developed here: cinelabresearch.com/our-proj…

This work was only possible through the immense dedication and vision of many people (@Rachael_Bedford, @Hr_pickard, @DrBenCarter, @claire_essex, @PetrinaChu), our partners (@EYAlliance @NCTcharity @TheSleepCharity) and our incredible families! 🧠 🛌 . Thank you!!
