Thanks to the success of TikTok and Instagram Reels, the platform is increasingly emphasizing short-form video content in the form of YouTube Shorts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite these developments, the time kids spent watching their favorite streaming platforms stayed fairly constant.

Streaming time stayed fairly constant between 2023 and 2024. Kids worldwide spent just under an hour (58 minutes) per day on their favorite streaming platforms across 2024 <\/span><\/strong>– a minute more than in 2023, but 13 more minutes than in 2022. Racking up 66 minutes of average daily stream time, kids in the US watched the most online video content in 2024<\/span>. Australian and UK kids were the next most avid viewers, hitting 58 and 56 minutes respectively. Perhaps to be expected, monthly jumps in viewtime coincided with school breaks; Australian kids on summer break in January spent 68 minutes per day <\/span><\/strong>streaming online video, while US kids set a record average of 72 minutes in July.

Coinciding with its immense popularity and the 70+ minutes per day kids spent watching, YouTube was the most blocked video streaming app in 2024,<\/strong> as it was in 2023. Unchanged from the previous year, the top 3 blocked video streaming apps mirror the popularity rankings with Netflix holding 2nd spot and Disney in 3rd<\/strong>. Interestingly, Prime Video replaced Twitch as 4th most blocked,<\/strong> likely due to Prime\u2019s increase in global popularity and Twitch\u2019s slide. In France however, parents saw Twitch as more of a concern than Prime Video and Disney+.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2023, 985 million households<\/span><\/a> gave up their conventional paid TV subscriptions in favor of video streaming, and despite 2024\u2019s price hikes, ads, and cutbacks in production, subscription numbers for Netflix, Prime Video et al. continue to rise. As competition between the streaming behemoths heats up, we can expect a stronger focus on user experience<\/strong>, such as more personalized recommendations, intuitive interfaces, fluid navigation, and hopefully, more powerful parental controls.<\/span><\/p>\n

Experts believe that the faster speeds and lower latency offered by 5G<\/strong> will improve the video streaming experience, especially when on the move, and bring in more subscribers to the platforms. However, faster, more reliable connectivity could make it even tougher for parents to pull kids away from their favorite shows or streamers.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2023, 985 million households<\/span><\/a> gave up their conventional paid TV subscriptions in favor of video streaming, and despite 2024\u2019s price hikes, ads, and cutbacks in production, subscription numbers for Netflix, Prime Video et al. continue to rise. As competition between the streaming behemoths heats up, we can expect a stronger focus on user experience<\/strong>, such as more personalized recommendations, intuitive interfaces, fluid navigation, and hopefully, more powerful parental controls.<\/span><\/p>\n

To respectfully keep an eye on what your children are consuming online, make them aware that you are supervising what they watch, not as an act of control, but as a way to protect them<\/strong>. By being transparent and clear, you encourage and normalize honesty, while learning more about them. To foster open communication about what children see online, and how it makes them feel, encouraging honest, non-judgemental dialogue is essential from an early age: it\u2019s important that they see you as someone who seeks to understand and respect them. Be a role model by demonstrating healthy device habits, as this will make them feel more at ease sharing theirs with you.<\/span><\/p>\n

To respectfully keep an eye on what your children are consuming online, make them aware that you are supervising what they watch, not as an act of control, but as a way to protect them<\/strong>. By being transparent and clear, you encourage and normalize honesty, while learning more about them.

Be a role model by demonstrating healthy device habits, as this will make them feel more at ease sharing theirs with you.<\/span><\/p>\n
