For all the talk about how watching
violent TV or playing violent computer games affects our children, there are many that think it's no big deal. But it really is. I've reviewed an information packed book by Jerome and Dorothy Singer,
Imagination and Play in the Electronic Age, and they have compiled much of the research in the area and the results are clear. Over and over again. There is no good reason to expose our kids to violent TV, movies, video games, or internet. Please go to my review at
www.imageryforkids.com/art_imagination.asp for the full explanation.
On the other hand, there is good news about other types of TV, video and computer games. That's in the review as well, with lots of ideas on what to choose and how to stimulate your child's imagination.
And if you haven't heard enough after reading my review, you can order the book for yourself through their publisher at
www.baywood.com.
Happy watching and playing!
