Parents usually have a complaint that their kids are glued to the television for long hours. In fact, TV can be useful or harmful according to the way we deal with it.
TV can have a positive influence on kids. A few television channels are dedicated to creating educational and informative content for children. These broadcast only educational content covering subjects like art and craft, science, history, geography and math. TV is also a great medium that exposes children to different languages around the world. TV is one of the primary sources of entertainment for kids. The sounds and colorful images on the screen appeal to children and also
retain their attention. The best way to expose your kids to sports is through TV. Encourage them to watch different sports by co-viewing with them. Tell them about the gameplay, rules and other interesting facts about the sport. If they show interest in any, encourage them to play the game or sport. Television takes the child to different countries and educates them about various cultures in the
world. Some TV shows are inspiring. They encourage children to try new things. For example, a documentary about famous scientists, artists and other public figures can inspire children to do good deeds or achieve something big in life.
TV affects children negatively as well. Addiction to TV shows reduces the amount of physical activity in children. Sometimes, they refuse to do anything else but watch TV all day.
