I am old enough to remember when Sesame Street began in 1969 and I watched it with my children. It amazes me that the songs from that show are still in this old brain. Television shouldn't replace reading,making things or playing outside, but sometimes, vegging out and watching television is O.K. I know many, many healthy meals were concocted while my young ones watched PBS. If parents choose properly, children can learn many great things from watching television. Parents should watch television with their children. Both my adult children are fantastic cooks and have ideal body weights. I would watch commercials with them and we would discuss all the lousy "food" that was advertised and I would explain that advertisers do not always have the best intentions of the consumer in mind. T.V. is a great opportunity for learning and teaching of values, but the parent has to be involved and monitor.<br />Now, I will get off my soapbox. :-)suzieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04883115039145453043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-78348842216274262742012-06-14T19:15:34.183-05:002012-06-14T19:15:34.183-05:00Thanks for the link and for thinking of me, Angel!...Thanks for the link and for thinking of me, Angel!

I just picked it up from our library.<br /><br />I was all excited for my kids to watch the Fetch show you recommended but unfortunately the PBS doesn't allow us Canadians to watch it from its website. Perhaps some local carrier has it.<br /><br />My kids (elementary school aged) haven't watch TV in quite a while, but they do like to watch movies from time to time. I'm sure once school is out the TV will become more of a draw. They do wish they could have play dates 24/7 though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-14444068618104912052012-06-06T23:54:07.569-05:002012-06-06T23:54:07.569-05:00My kids love watching Fetch!!My kids love watching Fetch!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-27877082979940636782012-06-06T12:24:53.512-05:002012-06-06T12:24:53.512-05:00My three kiddo's love Wild Kratts too!

I adore Fetch and wish it was on in the afternoon (so I could watch when I get home from work).<br /><br />Neither me or my sister have any kids and we both love Ruff and Blossom (especially Blossom when she's rolling her eyes at Ruff).<br /><br />PBS is a great resource for super cute kids shows. I also recommend "Dinosaur Train".JLVerdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02814082484881071454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-88238239642019911352012-06-05T20:09:36.155-05:002012-06-05T20:09:36.155-05:00Scalloped bias tape?

Actually, I've never seen any of your recommendations - will be checking them out!<br /><br />We also love Wild Kratts, other favorites have been Kipper, Blue's Clues, Between the Lions, Wild Kratts, and Word World. And Emma ADORED signing time - she had quite the sign language vocabulary from that one (over 200 words!)
