Many parents, providers, and educators are expressing a concern about the amount of television and the type of programming to which children are being exposed. The Department of Education states that children in the United States watch an average of three to five hours of television every day.

Children aren’t engaging in the activities they need to help them develop their bodies and brains when they watch television.
