Media today 114

Reading: Roger Hargreaves, Miss Unentschieden

Viewing: Let's play Minecraft (3 hrs)

J was under the weather today, so he stayed home from various activities and my wife let him watch what he wanted. He wanted Minecraft. Lots of Minecraft. 

This would be a good time to compute average L2 media time per day. So ... out of 104 days so far this year, J has racked up 1483 minutes of L2 listening, which averages to just over 14 minutes per day. He's done 2775 minutes of L2 viewing, which is about 27 minutes per day. 

We haven't recorded how much L1 television he watches per day, but my sense is that it's probably about as much or perhaps a little bit less than L2. So on the whole he averages a little bit less than an hour a day total of viewing time in both languages.

Occasionally my wife will listen to an L1 audiobook with him, but not very often. Mostly she reads to him herself. 

Total audio 2015: 24.43
Total video 2015: 46.15
