Why: Digital media use among toddlers and preschoolers is a growing reality. 47 percent of children from birth through age two spent more than an hour in front of a TV on an average weekday in 2011/2012. While mobile use remains small among this demographic (only six percent are daily users and average about two minutes per day on mobile media), it is increasing. More than one in three have used a smartphone, tablet, or similar device.
