Educational children’s programs on television Automatic translate

TV shows only crime and obscenities - this is the thought of 95 percent of people who have a TV set. However, this fact does not prevent them from watching it literally every day, but not about that now.

We will talk about television and children. Children should not be allowed to watch TV - this is the firm position of an impressive percentage of parents on this issue. Are they right?

In a certain sense, yes. Indeed, most TV programs are not intended for children, and watching them can instill in a child a categorically harmful system of values.

It is true that there are special children’s channels, but even here everything is not so smooth. Some of the cartoons broadcast on them - this is a frank consumer goods, which will not teach your children anything good. Watch such cartoons yourself sometime, and you will come to a terrible bewilderment from the unspeakable nonsense happening on the screen.

But do not rush to drive your child away from the blue screen and send him to the street or read books (although it also does not hurt). After all, there are so-called developmental TV programs. And it’s not just about “bayushki”, which, of course, remains a wonderful program, but already a bit outdated.

Today children’s television is experiencing a real boom of educational TV programs for young children. These are educational cartoons for the youngest “Dasha the Traveler”, and “Team Umizumi”, and many other wonderful cartoons. They teach children logic, counting, communication and many other useful skills. You can even consider them as a good additional developmental base for your child.

Qualitatively, they stand far above most old TV programs of similar format, both in terms of complexity and variety of tasks set before the child, and a certain degree of interactivity. Comparing them with the same inarticulate “Teletubbies” is like comparing heaven and earth.

Returning to the age-old question of whether TV is harmful to children, we can say that yes, it is. But even here there are programs that not only can, but also need to watch your child to grow up morally healthy and comprehensively developed.
