Older moms and dads remember programs during children's hours and specific programs for children. Things have changed quite a bit now our sons and daughters have thematic channels and largely paid to learn and entertain themselves, and they can do it all day long, yet television training is being neglected.

Drawings not suitable for children
Each family is free to decide what kind of programming looks in the house. But sometimes we believe that because they are cartoons they are free of prejudices, violence or attitudes that we do not want to share with our children.
There is some cartoons, very popular that, some experts do not recommend. This is the case, for example, of Sponge Bob. His drawings are very striking for the little ones, however, he has a very marked black humor and absurd ideas that children do not always understand. One of the characters recommends curing a cold by dipping your feet in boiling oil ...
Dragon Ball Super, continues with the adventures of Goku and the rest of the characters. They are dedicated to fighting, fighting and fighting evil enemies. The blows and battles are constant. It can be too violent for a small audience. And not to give too much importance to this section, but there is more, what do you think of the diet of the Ninja Turtles always eating pizza?
Educational and fun TV shows
On the other side of the coin we list you some programs made by professionals that make television a formidable tool for our children to entertain themselves in a healthy way.
- Sesame Street is a television classic, it continues to be a leader for its great educational and fun content.
