Title: GATBOOK by GAT HABIT is Now Live on Kickstarter, Aiming to Reduce Smart Phone Exposure Among Babies and Toddlers

The influence of smartphones on young children is a growing concern, and GAT HABIT, founded by parents of young children, is addressing this issue with a new product called GATBOOK.
