A study conducted by the University of Calgary in Canada into screentime of children globally found that around 75.3 percent of children aged under two and 64.4 percent of children aged two to five in these studies exceed guidelines for screentime in pre-pandemic periods.

The current screentime guidelines globally are generally recommended to be no screentime at all for children less than two and one hour per day for children aged two to five.
