What is Tech in Steps?

Gabb is driven by the belief that kids and teens need a different relationship with technology than adults. Tech in Steps is Gabb’s approach to introducing kids to the right technology at the right time — allowing you the ability to give your kid or teen the tech that fits their readiness.

Why Tech in Steps?

Tech vs Kids

Smartphones were created for adults, and offer addictive apps and functionality that kids and teens are simply not ready for. From social media’s grip on the fabric of society to the increasing threat of online predators — throwing kids into this digital sea before they are ready is not an option.

  • Too Much, Too Soon

    Giving kids internet, social media, and smartphone access too early can increase their exposure to content and experiences they are not ready for.

  • Screen Addiction

    Excessive screen time displaces physical activity by keeping individuals sedentary and impacts social development by keeping kids who should be active isolated and sedentary, which reduces real-life interactions and hinders the development of the social skills necessary for them to thrive.

  • Real-life Dangers

    Cyberbullying, digital predators, scams, and identity theft are running rampant across the digital landscape, and devices made for adults are the doorway for bad actors to connect with your child.

How Tech in Steps Works

Every family is unique. Whether it’s responsibility with devices, ability to spot online dangers, or self-control with apps and screen time, every kid has different needs at different times. Tech in Steps empowers you as the parent to determine the level of access that meets your child where they are.
