As I was sitting here thinking of what to write about this week, I suddenly heard an annoying voice coming through my television. A bossy, pushy rabbit voice, that belongs to none other than Ruby, from Max and Ruby. This got my thoughts going to how sad it is that our children don't have the same television shows we had growing up. As a parent I find today's offerings for children's programming to be lacking the same appeal as the shows we all watched in our youth.
Let's use Max and Ruby for an example, because that show makes no sense whatsoever. Ruby is the older sister, of Max, and from what we can tell they are both under 10. They don't appear to have parents, yet there are photos on the wall of them. Ruby takes the bus, does laundry, bakes, all the while bossing Max around. Max is as naughty as they come,...

Welcome to the world of Rosemary Wells. She's an author and illustrator of children's books and now we are able to see these books come to life. Is this a good thing? Allow me to go out on a limb and say 'no, it is not.' However, it is possible that viewers ages 2 to 7, (the age range for which the DVD indicates this series is intended), might enjoy this. If so, then we as a society need to evaluate what the kiddies are watching.
What do kids ages 2 to 7 look for in being entertained via the TV? If we chalk it up to bright colors and a soothing storytelling narrator, then why even bother animating the talking animal cartoons and writing a story that likely was written in under three minutes? The two discs each come with four animated tales along with some extra content. Because this series is best for kids,...
