Babies could cry hardly or emotional. Most of the parents would use pacifier to make their babies quite. Yet, apart from using physical pacifier, parents nowadays would also use “electronic pacifier” to pacify their kids.

Remember when we were small, the moments we looked forward the most was to go out to the street and to meet other kids in the playground. We would play group games like “Hide and Seek”, “Freeze” and "Red Light Green Light”, etc. with our friends and neighbors in playground. However, the kids these days will play with lots of electronics. Seems like we had more full-body moments while they now have more fingers’ activities.

Speaking of learning from playing as a kid, we would learn from reading a physical book or drawing with crayons. Nowadays, everything has gone electronic. Kids can learn many things by just using one tablet. They can draw or even play piano on one tablet. Seriously, isn’t that crazy?
