Should Babies Watch TV?
September 3rd 2011 15:53
Babies and TV ....how much is too much? Programming geared toward babies has always concerned me. There is so much real world to explore. At the same time I will admit to being quite smitten with Sesame Street. ( to this day )
I love how they pull in pop culture....
Check out Mad Men by Sesame Street
.....keep it relevant ( for adult fans too ) like with the awesome iPogo episode or Grover's parody of the Old Spice commercial, Smell Like a Monster
....but still run the tried and true "1,2,3 - 4 5 - 6,7,8 -9 10 - 11,12"
I can like this show and still be concerned about plopping a baby in front of the electronic babysitter. These little people need to move around, touch things, learn to talk, discover and PLAY that is their job.
Preview shows before letting little minds absorb the info, consider this new show aimed directly at preschoolers....
Remake of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood: Will you be Daniel Tiger's Neighbor? Would Mr. Rogers approve? I feel somewhat okay with this remake since it is being done by the Mr. Rogers Foundation....but I am still holding out all out approval until I see what they have done to the Land of Make Believe.
......just my two-cents on the issue. I'll leave you with Ma Na Ma Na enjoy!
