Digital world and digitalization are seen as a recently growing phenomenon. In line with digitalization, people are more exposed to digital zones. The usage rates of digital media products of especially children are observed to increase every year and to go down to earlier age groups. The age group 9 to 12 years is regarded as the period in which tablet usage increases and children encounter many different games and applications. In the children of abovementioned age group, communication disorders with their peers and environment may arise due to overuse of tablets. It is observed that an increase of tablet usage and increase of communication disorders are directly proportional.
