Abstract Information and communication technologies can be a tool for the development of social and educational values that provide young people with social difficulties with the necessary opportunities for their insertion in contemporary society. In this perspective, a work is proposed whose objective is to investigate the digital leisure experiences of young people in social difficulties to discover the educational opportunities that can be implemented in the group through leisure activities sustained in the technological environment. This is a qualitative study, with open data interviews conducted with 78 informants as data collection instruments. Among the relevant results obtained is that this group of young people in a situation of social exclusion remains in constant contact with friends through their smartphones. With the continued use of this device, they alternate their professional, family and educational occupations with social networks and the Internet to search, among other actions, information about celebrities or fashion “youtubers” to copy their personal behavior and style. Therefore, we conclude with the analysis of an educational approach that uses these devices as a means of working with young people in social difficulty, educational alternatives for digital leisure that provide opportunities for the development of actions on the network, whose value for personal and social growth enables new opportunities for inclusion in society.
