One in 10 parents of preschoolers and toddlers report their child plays outside just once a week or less, whilst nearly a third say their child engages in media play such as video games daily, according to a national US poll.
The University of Michigan Health C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health, conducted in August with 710 parents of children aged one to five, found that three in five parents say their child watches TV or videos daily, with screen time increasingly part of play routines.
