As a little experiment this afternoon...we broke out one of the Baby Einstein videos. It's actually a Baby Monet DVD which talk about the seasons. And sure enough it had the "zombie" effect that tv definitely has on children. It's so scary that at such a young age they can be so consumed by that screen. Very, very dangerous...perhaps we will put that away and save it only in times of real emergency...
just a side note...we didn't realize that all the Baby Einstein videos were able to be played in Spanish...at least there is a perk!
Well if Felix wasn't forcing her to watch it she might turn away!! hahah! Just kidding, it is definitely like baby crack. Used in moderation, it can be quite the parent's friend!
ReplyDeleteSome nite when you are exhausted after working all day with challenging teenagers, that 'crack' might look mighty good! Mom :)
