This past May, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) launched the Healthy Children Podcast, a new resource for parents and families. In it, host Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez, a mother, primary care pediatrician, and director of the pediatric telemedicine program at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, talks with experts about how to help children be happy, healthy, and thrive in today's world.
To date, episodes span a manageable 20 to 30 minutes in length and address topics such as breastfeeding, creating healthy and realistic eating habits, the mental and developmental benefits of participating in sports, navigating social media, safe sleep, and more.
