I read this book to my kids and now to their kids. The illustrations might be dated, but the message is valid, even applicable to all screen time. Not a concept when published in 1984. ( )

This story would be great in the classroom to teach students to not be watching tv all the time and that there are more fun things to do other than watch television. ( )

This book told a really good story about how watching too much tv can spilt up good relationships you have with people. When you watch too much tv it showed that you lose creativity to be outside and you lose the ability to be able to talk with those close by to you. ( )

the bears get a new color tv, the bears (except mama bear) spend all their time in front of the TV. eventually the bears stop watching tv with the help of mama bear.

49 months - never an issue in our house as O rarely gets much TV/movie screen time... But there are times when she'd like more so this is a nice reminder why we don't watch TV all day everyday. ( )
