Tickle U For Toddlers
Recently, Cartoon Network launched a new television program specifically for preschool aged children called Tickle U. As a mother of three boys, Cartoon Network is probably the most watched channel in our home. While the oldest boy loves most of the cartoons, most of the programming would not hold the interest of the toddlers. When I was offered the opportunity to join Tickle U’s parent advisory board, I jumped at the chance!
Being a parent advisor did give me the benefit of taking a sneak peak of the program before the general public. When I received the information, my toddlers and I cuddled up together to watch the shows. I must say, the shows were adorable and really kept the kid’s attention. Being an internet-based mom business, the first episode of Peppa Pig really hit home with kids and has quickly become one of our favorite shows. I still have a few of the DVDs left that were sent to me before the new program launched. If you are interested in receiving a copy, contact me and I’ll send it right out to you - as long as I have one left.
Not only has Cartoon Network created the wonderful new television program for this age group, but also a terrific child-friendly internet community with games and learning activities appropriate for their age! We generally let one child play on my computer and the other child play on Daddy’s computer simultaneously. The website has a timer that the parent’s can set to control the amount of time the child can play. One of the best perks is there is no advertising or sneaky gimmicks to tempt your child to click and leave the site.
