Dora the Explorer vs YouTube

Why does Sam sound like a mini adult? He is a sponge, a parrot, and super smart to boot! His language explosion can be attributed to his quick mind and time spent with adults and older siblings.
He also watches a lot of YouTube! TV isn't always a bad thing! Unless it's mindless shows like Dora the Explorer. That show makes my ears bleed.  How many times must The Map repeat directions?




Map - "Bridge, lake, tall mountain." "Bridge, lake, tall mountain." Bridge, lake, tall mountain." "Bridge, lake, tall mountain." Dora - "Where do we go first?"

Dora tangent over, back to quality entertainment! Sam has learned a lot about science and language from watching things that interest him on YouTube. But be mindful if he asks you for seemingly innocent household products. Don't assume he is planning on baking cookies! Dane and he watched a video on homemade hand grenades last night!
