The great folks at Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood are hosting their 8th international Consuming Kids Summit: Reclaiming Childhood from Corporate Marketers, March 21-23 in Boston. The summit is a terrific place to learn from leading experts in the field – and to connect with other advocates. Two of my colleagues from DEY (Defending the Early Years) will be there: Diane Levin will be presenting Tough at an Early Age: The Harm Caused by Using Media Violence to Market to Children. DEY’s Nancy Carlsson-Paige will be presenting Education in the Marketplace: Data, Choice and Profits. I will be presenting positive and practical strategies for working with parents and teachers around issues of marketing, media and pop culture. And, the very funny and quite fabulous Lenore “Free Range Kids” Skenazy will be there once again! I hope to see you there, as this summit is an incredible and transformative experience. Space is limited so register today.
