From the Hospital for Sick Children’s website, “More TV Means More Junk Food”.
Even if you don’t believe in the pervasive influence of advertising on our thought processes, you can’t deny that if your child doesn’t even know that a particular product exists… he/she won’t pester you for it!
p.s. Another vital factor in the equation is the influence of parental example – I sure wish I was a better model of healthy eating! (Oh Cheezies, how I adore you…)

This blog is intended to provide information for parents (especially parents of preschoolers) on media for children. Hopefully it will help you find movies and books that are:
1. GOOD! (There's a lot of crap out there!)
2. age appropriate
3. in line with your child's interests
