Problem

In a hyper-connected society, the average daily time that children (even very young ones) spend in front of the screen reaches peaks of 8 hours a day, especially in low-income families. A growing number of studies show that screens at too early an age can hamper the physical, behavioral, emotional, and cognitive development in children Accordingly, the World Health Organization recommends no or limited screen time for children below five years of age.

Impact Mission

FABA allows interactive entertainment for kids without screen exposure thus avoiding potential impairment of the child’s development. At the same time, they are developing educational content that can accompany the child throughout its growth path.
