| My 3 year old boy used to love sesame street until recently. He no longer wants to watch sesame street and throws a fit when he is only allowed to watch sesame street. What other shows can you recommend I introduce him to that have educational elements? He is really into Cars these days but a Cars movie takes up so much time. We like to limit his TV time to 1 hour a day when he is not in preschool. Please advise. Thanks! |
| If he no longer likes the show you feel comfortable letting him watch, how about no TV at all? It won't hinder his educational development and might even enhance it. |
| Diego is good as they learn about different types of animals and the episodes are fairly short. |

Blah, blah, blah. Whatever. My 4 & 3 year olds love SuperWhy on PBS. |
| Word World? Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood? |
|
+1 on SuperWhy.
Also, my guys love Umizoomi. All about math. |
Go paint some pasta with your kids or melt some crayons.... It might actually enhance their development v. having their mother acting sanctimonious on an anonymous forum. |
| My four year old loves the old school episodes of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. |
| Sid the Science Kid? |
Shut. It. |
| Peter Rabbit, dinosaur train, anything on Sprout?? |
|
LeapFrog on Netflix.
Although you shouldn't ask me, my 4 year old loves Dino Squad, which usually has a social or moral lesson like internet safety or working as a team but is not very educational. The theme song is insanely catchy. We had to cut her off of X-Men, Spiderman and Avengers cartoons because she would get really wound up from all the violence. |

All of the other stuff on PBS is really good. SuperWhy, Daniel Tiger, Curious George, etc.
Maybe if he takes a hiatus from Sesame Street, he'll return it it a little later
