Research says...

“Internet and television use among children has become entwined in other ways as well. A 2010 Nielsen study suggests that 36% of children between the ages of 2 and 11 use both media simultaneously. Altogether, children between the ages of 8 and 10 spend about 5.5 hours each day using media — eight hours if you count the additional media consumed while multitasking.”- Nielson Report Paraphrased at: http://mashable.com/2011/03/14/children-internet-stats

“Children have more access to all kinds of digital media, and are spending more time during the day with them than ever before.”

- Gutnick, Robb, Takeuchi, Kotler (2011)

“Mobile media appears to be the next “it” technology, from handheld video games to

portable music players to cell phones. Kids like to use their media on the go”

- Gutnick, Robb, Takeuchi, Kotler (2011)
