Abstract
Today’s children are growing up with an array of electronic media at their fingertips. Screens are ubiquitous in this digital world. The screen, whether it is computer, mobile phone, tablet or television, is a symbol of modern life. Infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers are now using the new screen-based technologies at increasing rates. Screen-viewing is a common sedentary behaviour among pre-schoolers.
