Due to the development of digital technologies and their growing availability to all categories of the population, the age of children who regularly use electronic devices decreases. This article summarizes the results of the studies investigating the use of electronic devices by preschool children and describes the role of parents in organizing this type of activity for them. The data were collected from papers published from 2017 through 2024 and available in eLibrary, CyberLeninka, and PubMed. The analysis of the data revealed that most parents lack the skills needed to teach children to use electronic devices safely, and their awareness of the associated health disorders and preventive measures is insufficient. Therefore, the experience of using electronic devices by children, including preschoolers, may be negative, which necessitates efforts aimed at counseling parents and educating them about digital safety and the rules of controlling the relationship of their children with such devices.
