Why Do Kids Watch Movies Over and Over
This is a great insight over at FamilyMediaGuide into why kids watch programmes over and over by Joanne Cantor, Ph.D., Professor Emerita at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Interesting points I got from it :
Interesting points I got from it :
- it may take many, many viewings to pick up the essential elements of even a simple program
- children can discover more and more details as they watch again and again.
- enjoy the empowering feeling of being able to predict what happens next
- They are usually overwhelmed by the visual image and can’t follow the underlying story
- children can overcome this inability with repeated viewing and increase their understanding substantially
- Viewing TV with a child is a very good way to engage her in a productive conversation.
