Most of the children on the other hand were able to wait for an average of less than three minutes to consume the marshmallow, they tried to wait as long as they could but it was very difficult for them to delay their gratification. And some used different ways to distract themselves like covering their eyes, kicking the desk, turning around to sing and they were trying as hard as they could to occupy their minds with something else. Out of all the 14 children in the unreliable environment there was only one who was able to wait for the full 15…

The plebeian conundrum of the program has created a mass boom amongst a child who enjoys watching this show and also the countless medical professionals who are trying to dissuade parents. Research and countless studies have shown that 4 year olds who have watched nine minutes of SpongeBob, preformed only half as well as the children who spent the same amount of watching Cailou which is a PBS show or drawing. This conundrum is stated when head researcher Brown stated ”Technology is great, but we also want to explore how does that impact our kids”(Ln.38) When the children are asked to perform four tasks such as playing games that involve rules, the non SpongeBob watching kids did significantly worse than the children that did not partake in the watching of the show.…

In conclusion, Disney serves as a major educator, of all ages, towards those who decide to view their ultimate guidance. Through the lessons of morality, gender studies, and foreign culture, Disney educates the people on the values upheld within each sector and their integrity within society. Of course, Disney’s “tutoring” can be interpreted as either positive or negative depending on the outlook held towards the values. Despite this being very subjective, I believe Disney’s teaching to hold a positive impact on society and should be maintained at a lofty extent in order to preserve a culture of reinforced constructive character. In sum, professor Disney teaches the people lessons that should be followed by society as they hold positive values…

It has been said that television, has little or no educational value. I strongly disagree with this statement for a number of reasons. These reasons include that there are television shows that talk about and teach many children about subjects they learn in school such as the science and history. Also, TV catches children’s attention in such a way that a teacher couldn’t, because the way producers of educational television programs portray the shows make learning fun and interesting. This is why I would argue that television has significant educational value.…

Subsequently, one of the fundamental factors involved in these behaviors, and which deserves comprehensive research and examination, is the symbiotic relationship between extensive television viewing, unhealthy dietary choices and childhood obesity. If a young person views more than two hours of television, there exists the increased likelihood their primary food choices will be comprised of those deficient in nutritional value.…
The findings strongly support the notion that the most important lifestyle factor in childhood obesity is television watching (Monmaney). The television brings the child`s imagination to life, giving them entertainment to do without the running and exercising of outdoor sports. The more television a child watches the more obese the child will get. Next, the problem is getting so out of hand that the government is going to have to start getting involved. Satcher and Shirley Watkins, the undersecretary of agriculture for food, nutrition and consumer services said that, "'TV increases obesity, stifles creativity and shortens attention spans among young people'" (Bauder). This is their reason for joining the campaign for a "TV-Free America." It is estimated that an obese child watches an average of four hours and nine minutes of television each day. That is four hours that a child could be bonding with their family or taking action in some physical activity. Thus, problem with child obesity starts as young as infancy. If the child's parents do not stress exercise the child will find an alternative way to occupy their…
In the first place, the current emphasis on creating “educational” television for infants and toddlers is questionable. Research suggests that, at this young age, children learn much more effectively from real-life examples than they do from video demonstrations. While evidence…
Technology is expanding around the world; many children use technology in their lives. In fact, technology has become necessary to them, and some kids cannot live without using it.

There are many consequences of using too much technology. Most of supporters think that technology is beneficial,enjoyable, and healthy.

Studies show that a child younger than the age of two does not learn well through television with children programming. They are more responsive and are able to connect words and objects when an adult is interacting with them. For children the ages of three and up, they are able to learn through television with kids programming because their brains are more developed and are able to focus and pay attention to the words on the screens. The study also shows that a child is able to pay attention to a person speaking to him just as an animal character on the television.…
Playing games and watching TV is the favourable moment for the kids, no world without it. Healthy and active children is still produced by a country though this phenomena occurs widely. Educational TV for under-twos has little benefit, says the US report. The American academy of Paediatrics states that there is evidence to back up advertising claims that television and DVDs can improve social language skills. Children who spend hours every day on their PlayStation or Xbox video consoles may not be rotting their ideas, as many parents scared. A report from the European parliament concluded that computer games are good for children and teach them essential life skills. Misunderstanding the advantage of screen time causes many negative…
