(From our friends at Commercial Alert.) Next month, Zero to Three, the nation's leading advocates for infants and toddlers, and Sesame Workshop will release a new line of DVDs for babies called Sesame Beginnings. Sesame Beginnings will encourage babies' devotion to TV characters that have been licensed to promote hundreds of other products, including sugary fruit snacks, and vacation resorts.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no screen time for children under two. DISCLAIMER: The opinions expressed on this
website are those of the individual members of Chicago Media
Action who authored them, and not necessarily those of the entire
membership of Chicago Media Action, nor of Chicago Media Action
as an organization.
Let's Put an End to Sesame Beginnings. Take Action!
