Growing Up Gaming brings together findings from a range of existing Ofcom research studies. It highlights children's gaming habits, the devices they use and the games they play, and how this can vary significantly across different groups.
This research has also informed Ofcom's Parents Power Up campaign, which encourages parents to take simple steps to help keep their children safer while gaming online, including checking age settings, talking about who their child games with and reviewing parental controls.
