Many children enjoy TV, and they can learn from it. Keep in mind, though, that young children often imitate what they see, good or bad. Its up to you to decide how much TV and what kinds of shows your child should watch. Think about your childs age and choose the types of things that you want him to see, learn, and imitate. Look for TV shows that --teach your child something, --hold his interest, --encourage him to listen and question, --help him learn more words, --make him feel good about himself, and --introduce him to new ideas and things. "Sesame Street," "Mister Rogers Neighborhood," "Blues Clues," "Between the Lions," "Reading Rainbow," "Barney & Friends," "Zoom," and "Zoboomafoo," are some shows that youmay want to consider. Many other good childrens programs are available on public television stations and on cable channels such as the Disney Channel and Nickelodeon. Limit the time that you let your child watch TV. Too much television cuts into important activities in a childs life, such as reading, playing with friends, and talking with family members. Watch TV with your child when you can. Talk with him about what you see. Answer his questions. Try to point out the things in TV programs that are like your childs everyday life. When you cant watch TV with your child, spot check to see what he is watching. Ask questions after the show ends. See what excites him and what troubles him. Find out what he has learned and remembered. Go to the library and find books that explore the themes of the TV shows that your child watches. Or help your child to use his drawings or pictures cut from magazines to make abook based on a TV show.
