Television has become so widespread that many British children now combine it with other activities, including social networking online, looking from their laptop to the TV screen and back again. Even if they are concentrating on the television, young people are now unwilling to watch just one program, with boys in particular often switching between channels to keep up with two programs at the same time. The survey, conducted by the market research agency Childwise, will increase worries that childhood is increasingly about private space and sedentary activities and less about play, social interaction or the child’s own imagination.
The government’s recent Children’s Plan focused on improving play facilities as a means of ensuring a more balanced life for young people who spend a lot of time watching television. Today’s survey findings show that after decreasing for three years, television-watching among children is now increasing again. This is mainly the result of more girls watching television series.
Internet use is also continuing to increase rapidly. This means British children spend an average of five hours and 20 minutes in front of a screen a day, up from four hours and 40 minutes five years ago. Reading books for pleasure, on the other hand, continues to decrease as a regular pastime. While four out of five children read books in their own free time, only a quarter do so daily and 53% at least once a week.
