A TV in the baby bottle

by Anne Georget

Summary

Television channels for small children – from 6 months to 2 years old – attract every year new parents, convinced of their educational benefits. By looking closely how these programs are made and justify their own interests, by following in France and USA the researches on their effects on very young children, this film deciphers the scientific and social issues of this new media market. And opens fascinating perspectives on babies’ mental and emotional universe.
