How this shapes young children\u2019s play is an area of considerable debate without any clear consensus on how different forms of play are brought into the iPad interaction. In this study, we examined 98 play activities of children in two preschool settings, featuring 2 and 4\u20135-year-olds, their play with iPads and non-digital artefacts. Three analytical approaches were used: an index built on a digital play framework [Bird, Jo, and Susan Edwards. 2015. \u201cChildren Learning to Use Technologies Through Play: A Digital Play Framework.\u201d&nbsp;<em>British Journal of Educational Technology<\/em>&nbsp;46 (6): 1149\u20131160. doi:<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1111\/bjet.12191\" target=\"_blank\">10.1111\/bjet.12191<\/a>&nbsp;], a quantitative description of the index, and a qualitative interaction analysis of children\u2019s play. Results show how play with iPads is characterised as less ludic than play with other artefacts, and diverges from the age-typical norms of play. We discuss what these results might mean for children\u2019s play in contemporary early childhood settings and for children\u2019s learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Notes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In contemporary developed societies, digital technologies have permeated most areas of human lives in a relatively brief period, and digital artifacts are among the most reoccurring everyday objects that young children play with.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"423\" src=\"https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-1024x423.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13704\" srcset=\"https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-1024x423.png 1024w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-300x124.png 300w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-768x317.png 768w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-1536x634.png 1536w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-696x287.png 696w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-1068x441.png 1068w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM-1017x420.png 1017w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.36.10-PM.png 1596w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"751\" src=\"https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-1024x751.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-1024x751.png 1024w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-768x563.png 768w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-80x60.png 80w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-696x511.png 696w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-1068x783.png 1068w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM-573x420.png 573w, https:\/\/desis.osu.edu\/seniorthesis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Screen-Shot-2023-02-01-at-9.39.53-PM.png 1445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This article has a lot of information regarding children&#8217;s types of play.
