For my boys I can let them watch superhero cartoons and know those are okay, but there's not a lot of good girl cartoons out now.<br /><br />Has Selena seen Horseland? That's on CBS on Saturday mornings, and Princess loves it. (For when she's allowed to watch TV again).Ticiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17970101432834731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8988931737585001828.post-47424454233955642742012-08-04T01:30:15.653-07:002012-08-04T01:30:15.653-07:00It does seem good to have a no-TV time every once ...It does seem good to have a no-TV time every once in awhile. I guess you could say that we always are a little TV family as we only get Netflix, but from time to time we are a no-TV at all family. It always seems to produce better behavior and more creativity.Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217282962233011656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8988931737585001828.post-24249776220329296712012-08-03T08:10:34.622-07:002012-08-03T08:10:34.622-07:00This is awesome.

We only watch something when Anna goes to bed, but these days we are watching recorded Olympics events in the evening. I also found that Anna needs some time to be able to switch into "unscheduled" time, but she (and us) really enjoy it when the switch happens.Natalie PlanetSmartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531558038661679151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8988931737585001828.post-9352181401597555582012-08-03T05:44:52.597-07:002012-08-03T05:44:52.597-07:00It does become difficult to find programs of value...It does become difficult to find programs of value as the children get older.An Almost Unschooling Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07784076035361200243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8988931737585001828.post-24325114716935380902012-08-03T05:03:17.280-07:002012-08-03T05:03:17.280-07:00Debbie -- we have done this in my house, and final...Debbie -- we have done this in my house, and finally just got rid of any extended cable at all. We just get a few stations now and rarely watch the television. I, too, was finding, that the viewing affected ALL of our behaviors, not just the kids.<br /><br />It's hard for the men that are home on the weekend and just want some peace and quiet -- tv is a good babysitter, but I think it doesn't produce good results. Good luck this weekend!!<br /><br />Hugs!Mary Pratherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13061111766665395897noreply@blogger.com
