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/

“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)
