Introduction:

The given bar chart illustrates the data about 5 activities Australian children prefer to do in
their spare time.

Overall, boys do more of each activity than girls (except for arts and crafts and watching TV
or videos). Another visible trend is that, while boys are more active than girls, both still prefer
sedentary activities such as TV and video games.

The percentage of Australian youngsters of both genders watching TV or videos is equal, at


100%. Electronic or computer games are much more preferred by boys than by girls. The
figures are slightly over 80% and 60% respectively. Likewise, bike riding also attracts boys
more than girls in their spare time. Boys’ involvement in this activity is nearly 80% whereas
the figure for girls is a little under 60%.

Around 40% of 5 to 14-year-old boys enjoy skateboarding or rollerblading, while the


proportion of girls at this age is only slightly more than 20%. In contrast, the figure for girls
spending their leisure time on arts and crafts is greater than their male counterparts, at just
under 60% and approximately 35% respectively.
