I want to know what they watch, what sites they go to, what products they buy, etc.
Where can I find free market research about tweens?
The comprehensive market research studies, unfortunately are not free. And they are expensive - from $650 to $3,500!
But there are some studies that you can get on Tweens:
Pew Internet http://www.pewinternet.org/report_displa...
Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/con...
YTVMedia.com http://www.corusmedia.com/ytv/research/i...
Media Awareness http://www.media-awareness.ca/english/pa...
IFOP http://www.ifop.com/america/tt/article_c...
TD Monthly http://www.toydirectory.com/monthly/June...
Business Week http://www.businessweek.com/innovate/con...
Brandchild http://www.brandchannel.com/brand_speak....
For books, I recommend you check out the following (definitely cheaper than buying a market research report):
kidfluence : The Marketer's Guide to Understanding and Reaching Generation Y -- Kids, Tweens and Teens by Anne Sutherland, Beth Thompson http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0...
The Great Tween Buying Machine : Capturing Your Share of the Multi-Billion-Dollar Tween Market (Paperback) by David Siegel, Timothy Coffey, Gregory Livingston http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1...
