New data shows that even very young kids — ages 2-8 — are quite helpful to their parents in navigating technology. The finding comes from the 2026 Kids Interactive Entertainment Report from Lingokids, the No. 1 online entertainment platform for young children.

More than half the parents surveyed for the report said they’ve asked their child for help with technology. Of those, only about 1 in 6 said their kids weren’t able to help. That success rate is very impressive given that the study does not include teens and older kids and is based on surveys of 2,000 U.S. parents of kids ages 2-8.

Yes, and they were helpful – 45.9%
Yes, but they weren’t able to help – 6.5%
No – 47.6%
