The given line graph illustrates time spent by children at the age of 10 and 11 on two different leisure activities per week between 2000 and 2009.
At the beginning of the period, spending time on the computer stood at approximately 4. Over the following 4 years, there was a significant increase of 15 hours a week in 2004. Then, it rose steadily to reach a peak of just almost 22 hours per week in 2009.
As the graph shows, at first, children spent more time watching TV than using computer. It started at 21 hours and remained steady until 2003. Between 2003 and 2004, it plunged to 15 hours. After that, despite some volatile periods, it remained unchanged up to the end of the period.
Overall, it is obvious that children preferred to spend much more time on computer in their spare time and their favorite hobby changed during the time.
