The bar chart illustrates a comparison of the proportion of three age groups in the United State, who engage in five different activities including reading, brushing teeth, having a bath, watching TV, and eating prior to bedtime practice.
By and large, reading is the most prevalent activity for all three survey age groups, while the opposite is true for watching TV and eating. Additionally, brushing teeth witnesses the most disparity percentage between these age groups.
To begin with, the percentage of preschoolers who participate in reading starts at a whopping 70%, the leading figure among the list, which far exceeds that of watching TV, at a humble 20%. In addition, for reading, the rate of toddlers and 4-to-5-year-old children is nearly an astonishing 60%, while the figure for eating is just a minimal 10%, which is halved than that for the 1-3 age group.
Regarding bruising teeth, the least common activity for toddlers, there is about 30% in the proportion of this age group, which is around 15% and 20% lower than that of children who age 4 to 5 and age 6 to 8 years old. In contrast, having a bath is the most dominant activity for the youngest mentioned age group, with the data being two-fifths, followed by the data for 4-5 years and 6-8 years, with approximately 35%. With a comparable pattern, but to a more extent is seen in the figure for eating as data for toddlers is a fifth, which is double that of the two other age groups.
