Reviews
"The importance of play, and indeed, children's right to play, has been long recognised. Yet in practice, play is increasingly curtailed, controlled and contested, especially online. In her meticulously researched book, Grimes dissects how we reached such a problematic situation and, importantly, how we might move forward so as to enable children's playful possibilities in a digital world."--Sonia Livingstone, Professor of Social Psychology, London School of Economics and Political Science "This outstanding book offers a comprehensive and critical examination of children's online play spaces, virtual worlds, and connected games. Sara M. Grimes provides an authoritative account of how digital play has much in common with traditional playground play, but also offers crucial insights into some of the differences in relation to issues such as privacy, censorship, ownership, and commercialization. This is a landmark book that will undoubtedly be the 'go-to' text in the years ahead for all those interested in the political landscape of children's digital play."--Jackie Marsh, Professor of Education, University of Sheffield "With Digital Playgrounds, Sara M. Grimes deftly cuts through the often simplistic and sanctimonious rhetoric surrounding children's digital play-worlds to offer a compelling framework with which to understand the interwoven threads of technology, politics and culture that comprise children's connected play. The result is well-composed, invaluable resource for anyone seeking to grasp the complex intermingling of gaming industry interests, and technological affordances with children's virtual play practices, rights and creativity."--Daniel Thomas Cook, Professor of Childhood Studies, Rutgers University "Grimes takes a deep and important dive into the politics embedded in online playgrounds. This outstanding book is a must-read for privacy scholars, child-rights activists, and anyone interested in understanding how tech companies shape children's lives." --Valerie Steeves, Professor of Criminology, University of Ottawa, "In framing the implications of her inquiry around questions of children's rights, Grimes' work models the attention that these topics warrant and highlights the urgent stakes of children's online play. This book charts a history and a theoretical framework that establishes a new and higher bar for children's media research. It is a foundational text in contemporary children's media studies and will remain so for the foreseeable future." --Meredith A.

Synopsis
Digital Playgrounds makes the argument that online games play a uniquely meaningful role in children's lives, with profound implications for children's culture, agency, and rights in the digital era., Digital Playgrounds explores the key developments, trends, debates, and controversies that have shaped children's commercial digital play spaces over the past two decades. It argues that children's online playgrounds, virtual worlds, and connected games are much more than mere sources of fun and diversion - they serve as the sites of complex negotiations of power between children, parents, developers, politicians, and other actors with a stake in determining what, how, and where children's play unfolds. Through an innovative, transdisciplinary framework combining science and technology studies, critical communication studies, and children's cultural studies, Digital Playgrounds focuses on the contents and contexts of actual technological artefacts as a necessary entry point for understanding the meanings and politics of children's digital play. The discussion draws on several research studies on a wide range of digital playgrounds designed and marketed to children aged six to twelve years, revealing how various problematic tendencies prevent most digital play spaces from effectively supporting children's culture, rights, and - ironically - play. Digital Playgrounds lays the groundwork for a critical reconsideration of how existing approaches might be used in the development of new regulation, as well as best practices for the industries involved in making children's digital play spaces. In so doing, it argues that children's online play spaces be reimagined as a crucial new form of public sphere in which children's rights and digital citizenship must be prioritized.
