New statistics show that the presence of small screens has increased in children’s lives, with one in four children spending more than 20 hours a week on screen-based devices.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) released new statistics on April 21 after analysing how much time children spend in front of a screen by tracking the number of hours they spent watching TV, using the internet, and playing games or participating in activities through screen-based portable devices such as consoles, smartphones, or tablets.
