Sažetak
We live in a time when mobile devices and the internet have become a part of our everyday lives, not just for individuals, but for entire families. Mobile devices and the internet are making their way into children’s lives from a young age and sometimes it seems that children are extremely adept at using them. This study aimed to examine the knowledge and habits related to mobile device use among children of early and preschool age from the point of view of the children and their parents. Special attention was paid to the differences related to the age of the children. The child sample consisted of two groups of respondents attending public kindergartens. One group consisted of 3–4-year-old children, and the other group consisted of 5–6-year-old children. A total of 30 children and their parents participated in the study, 15 children in both groups. Data were collected in writing from parents through a set of questions about their family’s habits of using mobile devices, while data on children, their knowledge, and their habits were collected through interviews. The research findings suggest differences between the age groups in mobile device ownership, ability to use a mobile device outside the home, knowledge of commonly used applications, downloads, and understanding of control over downloading applications, content, and search methods on YouTube.
