Book Description
Today's parents have a good reason to be concerned about both the quantity and quality of the TV programs their children are watching. Now TV TIME offers creative, "take charge" methods that enable parents to use television to help their children grow. Instead of turning parents into TV police or kids into TV addicts, this guide gets children actively involved in managing their TV choices with easy-to-play games, dialogues, mind-teases, and memory quizzes. Television time becomes not play fun, but educational, with ingenious ideas that will entertain, inform, and stir a child's imagination and creativity--
Intriguing, interactive games that foster alertness while programs are in progress.
Fun-filled TV-inspired projects a child can do before and after viewing.
Video ventures that inspire expanded learning adventures at the library or bookstore.
Challenging TV games that improve vocabulary and spelling.
Activities kids can do on their own or with other children.
Before-and after-show fun that encourages independent thinking.
Mind-expanding, TV-sparked discussions that bring the whole family together.
AND MUCH MORE!
