In the present world, Television has become an integral part of our daily lives whether we are kids or adults. With access to a plethora of programmes from the diverse Television channels that we can watch, we are exposed to both good quality TV programmes as well as what only qualifies as total junk.

In most homes, the Television is on 24/7 even when no one is actually watching it. Therefore, Television has become a major force in shaping the behavior of kids who take in everything that comes on TV without discrimination.

In many ways, TV content is beneficial to kids but in many other ways, spending time in front of the Television hurts your kids.

While many people tend to conclude that spending time to watch Television discounts from a child's overall wellbeing, empirical finding have proven that Television produces quite a number of benefits on kids. Among the many good effects that TV produces on your kids are the following:

*TV programmes which are educational in nature can educate, inform and inspire kids. They stimulate children's minds and help them develop greater capacity for assimilating information.
