Some people believe that television programmes are of no real value for childrevn How far do you agree or disagree????

Most of the people think that

children

television

programmes

have no any relevance for

children

life.

However

,at present most of the channels are broadcasting many good

programmes

and those focusing at the education of

children

in different ages of life, these

programmes

are educational

as well as

informative enough to make

children

relax

while

learning.

Therefore

, I am in the opinion that_ all the programs do not have any value. Amidst of heavy and busy schedules of the

children

today, National geography, Animal Planet. ~will create good understanding about the

world

environment,

this

is where

children

get understanding about deferent species of the

world

. Sometime

this

will lead some

children

to learn environment as a subject tIn addition watching BBC, CNN will enhance

children

communication skills

Further

certain

programmes

will enlarge the capacities of

children

to

world

phenomenon

as well as

to improve their language skills. ~

For instance

in Sri Lanka very recently there is a

programme

have started call cookery with culture~ (nonsence), ~in

this

programme

talk about different cultural foods and how it make, but

in addition

the

programme

is trying to give a message on cultural diversity,

this

is an ideal

programme

for

children

to learn others cultural values and norms~ There is a recent

tv

programme

being telecasted to demonstrate how typical foods of each culture are prepared and thereby to promote cultural diversity. *It is a good example that education of

children

can be possible through extra-curricular activities, like cooking.* There is a recent

programme

being telecasted to demonstrate how typical food of each culure are prepared and thereby to promote cultural diversity. ~

Similarly

, now a days

children

are more engaged with their education activities and feel really exhausted and stressed

therefore

they need some leisure time for relaxed.~ _ As

children

are more exhausted with class room studies, these practical and creative

programmes

will add value to lessons that they follow in the school.

For example

, by watching cartoon network,

children

enter into the wonder

world

and feel fresh and energetic.

In addition

some

TV

channels run talent shows which provide good platforms for young

children

to shows their talent and nourish their skills._ ( with these two points I have my own arguments that these will create a negative impact: 1) cartoons- competative and conflict mentality among

children

2)

programmes

like talent shows make your moral high and parents boost chodren in a very selfish and competitive way.) In conclusion, *I would like to reiterate that under the supervision of parent

children

should have an opportunity to watch some

TV

programme

* s ( good point: but spoilled with a bad ending) ~and that will enhance their knowledge in different ways

as well as

there are good

programmes

will create

children

to gain many new ideas for their life and

this

will create quality person for the earth~, ~

finally

"I am" *strongly believe* that Television

programme

have some value for

children

life~. In conclusion I would like to reiterate that under the supervision of parents

children

should have an opportunity to watch

TV
