This volume focuses on very young children's (aged 0-8) rights in a
digital world. It gathers current research from around the globe
that focuses on young children's rights as agental citizens to the
provision of and participation in digital devices and content-as
well as their right to protection from harm. The UN Digital Rights
Framework of 2014 addresses children's needs, agency and
vulnerability to harm in today's digital world and implies roles
and responsibilities for a variety of social actors including the
state, families, schools, commercial entities, researchers and
children themselves. This volume presents a broad range of
research, including chapters on parental supervision and control,
the changing forms of play, early childhood education, media and
cultural studies, law, design, health, special-needs education, and
engineering. Implicit within this book is the acknowledgement that
children of various ages, abilities, socioeconomic and geographic
backgrounds should have equal access to, and positive / non-harmful
experiences with, new digital technologies and content-as well as
adult support and expertise that enhances these experiences. This
passionate book celebrates the diversity of young children's
activities in the digital world. It interrogates these through four
intersecting lenses: their rights, play experiences, contextualised
design, and best practice. Balancing children's eager engagement
with digital content alongside adult responsibilities for
education, privacy and protection, the volume provides a fitting
showcase for work of global relevance. Professor Lelia Green
Professor of Communications Edith Cowan University Perth, Western

makers. Professor Susan Danby Director, ARC Centre of Excellence
