Children get first mobile phone at average age of eight. Eight is the average age at which children are given their first mobile phone, according to a survey. More than a third of children (35 per cent) own a mobile by the time they are that age, the charity Personal Finance Education Group (pfeg) discovered.
After surveying the parents of 350 children aged six months to 4 years old during October and November of last year, researchers learned that 75 percent of 4-year-olds have smartphones. About 97 percent of kids under age four have used a mobile device and 50 percent of children the same age had their own television. Nearly 100 percent of kids started using smartphones before their first birthday. Shockingly, nearly all (97 percent) children used mobile devices before their first birthday.
