CONSIDER THIS 9-29-09

Why do you think small children enjoy cartoons? What was your favorite cartoon as a child?

53 comments:

  1. The cartoons are aimed at chgildren, for humor reasons and sometimes to teach a bit of a lesson. It also helps keep them busy while a parent does something, and the kid finds it fun most of the time. They like them for the cartoonish look and funny feel. I liked Good Ol' Scooby Doo. That talking dog.

  2. I think small children enjoy cartoons because there are really funny. They are not mature yet so everything is funny. The cartoons that I liked would have to be scooby do.

  3. I think children enjoy cartoons because they're silly and get their imagination going. I don't really remember what my favorite cartoon was as a child. However, i think it was barney then power rangers.

  4. I think small children enjoy cartoons because our minds are naive to the real world. We will believe anything at the time and we think it is possible. My favorite cartoon was Rocket Power. My favorite character was Twister. Twister was the coolest thing ever when I was little. Twister was rocking the backwords hat and beasting it on the surfboard and skateboard.

  5. I think that it is because children have short attetion spans so cartoons are not as complex as tv shows like the history channel or anything like that. I remember watching tom and jerry alot as a kid.

  6. All the colors and animations. I had a lot of favortie cartoons. My all time favorite was Johnny Bravo. It was always on late at night, like two or so. Somehow, I'd know it was on, and I'd go wake up my dad and have him watch it with me. That show was the one thing I always knew I'd have to spend time with him.(:

  11. In my opinion small children enjoy cartoons because cartoons are made to appeal to children. The humor, the language, and the situations are all aspects of cartoons that children can understand. Growing up my favorite cartoon was Tom and Jerry.

  13. Well first small children are not the only ones that watch cartoons. I will admit that I watch the occasional cartoon show. My favorite would have to be Family Guy. But as a child it was probably sponge bob.

  14. My favorite cartoon as a child was The Power Rangers. I liked it because there was alot of action. That is one reason some children like cartoons. There is more action than what they can do in real life. Other cartoons though, are just for fun like the Looney Toons.

  21. I think children enjoy cartoons because of all the bright colors. And all cartoons have songs that they can catch on to real quick. They also try to get the kids to talk back to the televison and that makes them feel like part of the show. My favorite cartoon growing up was the big comfy couch.

  25. In reality there are rules and requirements. Cartoons however have none of these. I did not have a favorite cartoon I liked them all the same.

  26. i think small children like cartoons because its more "make believe" than reality. and they can understand it much better.

  27. Because they are colorful and fun. I liked that show with the beavers, "Angry Beavers". It was hilarious. I can't remember the names of the other ones, I had to look angry beavers up, hah.

  28. because it appeals to their innocent, pre-pubecant psychy. When your young theres nothing telling you that a safe or acme piano falling on your head can be fatal and possibly heart breaking to the immediate family of a cheerful mouse or curious road runner, so its fun. and a pleasant break from the monotenous routine of grahm crackers and nap time.... my favorite cartoons were catdog, rockos modern life, and ren and stempy.

  32. Children are just expected to watch cartoons, and thats it. By the time we were old enough to understand television but not old enough to figure out dish network cartoon network, nickleodean, and disney are what we were raised with. My favorites consist of everything on Boomerang, along with old nick shows like Hey Arnold, Angry Beavers, Rugrats, Catdog and so on.
