Hello! I'm currently writing my dissertation on children's entertainment and activities and need help from parents with children aged 7+. The answers I received from posting on Facebook/Twitter are from parents of babies/toddlers, meaning my responses aren't varied enough. It takes only a few minutes to fill in, and I would be very grateful for any help.
Here is the link. If you have more than one child aged 7+ please feel free to fill in more than once. Thanks again!

Like beanbagz - when I click on it agin (to do another child) it just takes me to the page where you can create surveys, not back to your survey.
Struggled a bit with the questions though, as, the older they get, the more they 'get on with stuff' without you, and things they do, aeren't really on your survey..... eg you ask about DVD/films but not TV. You ask about watching films and reading, but not listening to audio tapes. You ask about playing computer games, but not about doing other stuff on the computer - eg my dds go on a story writing site, and (if it would let me do the older ones) on social networking sites, or things like making playlists for their MP3s, so they are on the computer, but not playing games as such?
Sorry, I know it's hard in such a short questionnaire, but it gives a bit of a skewed picture.

Thank you so much for all the questionnaires you have filled in. I am overwhelmed by the number I can use now. All the information given will be very useful, and will hopefully get me a higher mark!
I didn't know that it couldn't be filled more than once, sorry about that. And to
BackForGood - The focus of my dissertation isn't only children's entertainment. Even where people have answered that they are unsure of what their child likes to watch/play will be useful for my work. In the section of children and computers I am looking at only gaming, so any information about social networking, or story writing sites would be irrelevant. Thank you for filling one in though!
Again, thank you to everyone. You've been such a big help
