My children are cartoon junkies. They know every single theme song on every channel, Nickleodeon, Playhouse Disney, Disney Channel (those with children in the house would know that those are two SEPARATE channels), Cartoon Network, etc.
Right now you might be thinking and judging what kind of a mom am I, putting my children in front of the television ALL DAY LONG, right? Well, let me tell you something. If you are a stay at home mom, with laundry to do (including folding and ironing), cleaning (bedrooms, living room, bathrooms, kitchen), cooking (breakfast, lunch and dinner) PLUS another 1001 things on your to-do-list, you'd know that the cartoons are the best babysitter in times of need.
Of course, that's not ALL they do. Of course I DO spend time with them.. we have playtime, reading time and just general quality time, but yes, I will admit that I will turn on the TV and put on Sesame Street or Dora, The Explorer when I need a breather.
Nowadays, though, my son is really getting into Digimon. Remember Digimon?
The famous digital monster franchise that once ruled every household? Well, my son was influenced by his cousins the last time we went back to my hometown, so right now, he's getting pretty into it. Before long, he'll be asking me to buy the digimon dvd season 3 now!
Thank God for ToonJunkie.com, or else I wouldn't know where to find all these past seasons of cartoon dvds, especially if you're looking for cartoons from the 80's.. like Silverhawks, Transformers and even older cartoon series like Aquaman!!
Although my children are into cartoons, at least they're not game junkies. I don't buy my children console games like Xbox, PSP, Nintendo and the like. It just looks like kids nowadays are zombie-fied by games and it honestly freaks me out! :S
