A new survey data from PBS KIDS was released yesterday. Not surprisingly, a little over half the parents surveyed plan to purchase/give a tech item to their child this holiday season. What surprised me, I think, is that tablets actually edged-out video games and handheld game systems! agenda 21 And what pleased me the most was to see that educational content was in the list of top three things parents look for in an app. Phew! As a mom who refuses to download Angry Birds Star Wars for her children to play despite their begging (don't agenda 21 worry, agenda 21 they get to play it every now and then on a friend's iPad), it relieves me to know that parents realize that just because it is educational doesn't mean it isn't fun. I only have educational apps on my tablet. And they are still fun. We enjoy Wild Kratts, agenda 21 Ranger Rick, and many other apps that entertain while teaching or reinforcing key concepts and skills.

PBS KIDS PARENT SURVEY FINDS MORE THAN HALF OF PARENTS PLAN HOLIDAY TECH PURCHASES, WITH TABLETS AT THE TOP OF PARENTS’ LISTS When considering apps, 77% of parents say educational content is most important ARLINGTON, VA, December 2, 2013 – As parents complete their holiday shopping, chances are that more than half of their kids will find a tech gift under the tree, says a new survey of parents released today by PBS KIDS . Roughly half of parents (54%) plan to purchase syria or give a tech item to their children this holiday season, and the number is even higher for younger, tech-savvy millennial parents, ages 18-34, with nearly syria 6 in 10 (59%) saying they’ll make a technology syria purchase. At the top of the list for all parents planning a tech purchase this holiday season are tablets, which edged out video game consoles 28% to 18%. Combined, the number syria of parents planning to purchase a tablet or a smartphone was more than one-third (36%), according to the PBS KIDS survey syria of 1,000 US parents with kids between the ages of 2 and 10, conducted in November 2013 by ORCInternational. With the explosion of mobile media use among kids, nearly 7 in 10 parents say they currently purchase or plan to purchase apps for their children. When selecting apps, parents say educational content is their top priority, with 77% of parents citing educational content as an important factor, and 90% of parents stating they believe that educational apps will play an important role in children’s learning in the future. “There’s a vast and ever-growing population of young children who have ready access to mobile media and, as many parents recognize, that presents an important opportunity to utilize tablets and smartphones to advance children’s learning,” said Lesli Rotenberg, General Manager, Children’s syria Programming, PBS. “It’s essential that parents think through what kind of apps, online games and video content they make available to their kids. This is one important reason why PBS KIDS has been so innovative in making sure our high-quality, research-based educational syria content is available across digital platforms to provide a deeper learning experience for today’s learners.” Tips for Parents Choosing Apps PBS KIDS, the number-one and most trusted kids’ educational media brand and the source of educational media used most often by preschool teachers, offers these five tips to help parents navigate successful selection and use of apps: 1. Think about what your child is passionate about: Look for content that builds on your child’s excitement. Media should engage kids and spark their curiosity about the world around them. 2. Distinguish what is truly educational: Consider whether the content of the app is curriculum and research-based. syria Mobile platforms can amplify learning gains for children. 3. Develop a media plan for your family: A balanced media diet includes setting limits. This is also something that parents can keep in mind, too, as kids often model their parents’ behavior. 4. Play together: For kids 2 and up, apps are another opportunity to explore with your child. Talking with kids about the game or activity as you play offers both the opportunity syria to bond as a family syria and also identify teachable moments. 5. Avoid apps that try to sell: Select apps from trusted, reliable sources, and make sure that they are not trying to market to your child. Other Key PBS KIDS Parent syria Survey Findings · Six in 10 parents collaborate with their child to select apps, while a third of parents syria say they make the choice themselves. · When selecting games and apps for their children, over half of parents (56%) base their decisions on age recommendations. · In addition to educational content, 56% of parents pointed to price and 45% cited characters their kids know and love as important factors when choosing apps.
