Just wondering what channels other kids prefer and what age they are - if you have cable/sky.
DD is nearly 6, about 18months ago she moved herself up from cbeebies to NickJr. Can't remember how it happened but I suppose she outgrew Tellytubbies et al.
Then last night she said she wanted to watch Spongebob as she saw it at a friends house. So I flicked round a few channels and found another channel with it on. So after it finished there was another cartoon on which seemed very loud and flashy and fast. She however wanted to carry on watching and now says NickJr is for babies.
I'm concerned that its too old for her as it doesn't seem as gentle as The Wiggles, LazyTown, etc ? I don?t want them sending her hyper. She doesn't watch much TV a day - less than a hour each day usually, some days maybe a bit more (rare). Do I just accept she's growing up or put my foot down and only let her watch "baby cartoons"?
