[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom of a 3.5 year old and we hadn't seen it until last week when we were invited to a Frozen Party where the movie was playing (and almost every little girl knew the words and was dancing with sheer delight to the songs).  I felt badly that I hadn't shown it to DD - she was so excited to finally see the movie that everyone was talking about. [/quote]

To the mom who was asking whether kids understand tv -- they definitely do by 3, because all their friends are talking about what they've seen on the playground, at daycare, at the playdate, etc.  Soon they'll be wondering why their friends have seen something but they haven't.[/quote]

If you're worried about your child "fitting in" socially with the other kids at preschool or daycare, you could always borrow some Frozen books from the library and read them together.  DC was like this with the Cars movies a few years back.  All the kids at school had seen the movies a bunch of times on DVD, but we hadn't introduced movies or DVDs yet and were in no rush to start.  So we found a bunch of Cars easy reader" books and read them together.  DC learned about all the characters and understood the plot lines, too.  By that point, DC had picked up most of it anyway by listening to classmates, but the books made it all more concrete, and gave DC more confidence to jump right in when the other kids were "playing Cars."

Fast forward to now.  DC is almost seven and still watches very little TV and movies only on very special occasions.  But DC is right in the mix socially.  Can keep up with whatever the other kids are talking about, even if we aren't watching it at home.  There's not a lot of "but all the other kids are doing it" type of begging in our house yet, which is great.  Let's hope it stays that way for awhile longer!![/quote]
