Subject: but.........

I have kids that are used to XBox, Segas, etc. Many lack either/or/both acedemic/social skills. Some of these 4 yr olds find the Sesame Street games, PBS Kids, or Leap Pad, to be 'boring'and for little kids. They are 4! Basically, they aren't killing something. And, too many kids find sitting at circle boring. Circle time games are boring. I'm boring. All they want to do is play on that darn computer. I want my kids to be active listeners. And to be able to engage in a conversation. Computers can and never will be able to teach that for our kids. We are teaching our kids to be drones at a computer screen, instead of teaching them how to express ideas.
