Abstract

The overall objective of the survey research is to assess what apps and games children and young people are currently using, how these are used for play and what other activities including non-digital play they undertake, together with background information on their well-being. The Digital Futures Commission, hosted by 5Rights Foundation, is a three-year project that includes the collaboration of organisations including policy makers, regulators, academics, civil society and innovators to unlock digital innovation in the interests of children and young people. The Commission is focusing on three areas: play in a digital world, beneficial uses of education data, and guidance for innovators. Each work stream is intended to create real world change for children. The Commission has now carried out research with 6-17 year olds looking at play in a digital world, ‘Playful by Design’, as reported here. Family Kids & Youth (FK&Y), a leading global market and social research agency, specialising in the world of children, parents and carers, was commissioned by the DFC to conduct an online survey to investigate how children aged 6 – 17 play in both digital and non-digital environments.
