And all that jazz...

My rough draft made me realize that I wanted to explore the idea of how certain kids' programming can be beneficial to their active imaginations and physicality. I am now working towards using my resources to support my thesis that television shows for children must stimulate ALL their senses, not just the visual and audio sensory. I have already researched the idea of how television on in the background of a child's play area will interrupt their playtime. This play time is crucial to their furthering development.

I still feel children should not be exposed to television at a very young age, but I also understand that certain programs geared toward educating toddlers and infants, can have a positive effect on their development IF they structure their program around the idea of getting their minds and bodies active.
