1 in 5 children use mobile devices daily. Surprisingly 60% of 0-8 year olds in the US use them to read, but 58% use them to watch TV at least once per day.

This graphic is interesting because it shows a different side to the often criticized use of technology by young kids.  This data projects a brighter light on the "overuse" of technology by showing a large percentage of 0-8 year olds that use media to read or be read to, showing the educational support technology provides for young people.  Although, following close behind is watching TV, a healthy balance is brought to the forefront.
