This paper investigates the information behavior of third and fourth grade elementary school children when using mobile digital devices from the perspective of parents. Through qualitative research methods, activities and information behavior of children recognizable in the everyday use of mobile digital devices were investigated through interviews. The purpose of children's information behavior when using mobile digital devices was also investigated. Parents' perspectives on the positive and negative aspects of children's information behavior when using mobile digital devices were investigated. Interviews were conducted with twelve parents of children from the "Petar Zoranić" Nin, Elementary School in Nin.The paper starts with the general assumption that digital devices and internet usage are important parts of children's information behavior. In the everyday activities that children engage in using mobile digital devices,a number of information activities have been recognized, such as searching, selecting, downloading, using, creating and sharing information. The information behavior of children serves the purposes of entertainment, education, hobbies, or solving everyday life situations, needs, or problems, and is limited by the context of parental upbringing. This paper makes a significant contribution to understanding children's information behavior from the perspective of parents. Limitations of this study may include parents' insufficient awareness of their children's habits,specifically those related to the types of content their children access. A recommendation for further research is a comparative qualitative study involving both parents and children to provide a more objective picture of children's information behavior in the use of mobile digital devices
