American boys and girls love to watch TV. Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six hours a day in front of the TV set. Some even watch TV for eight hours or more on Saturdays.
TVs are like books or films. A child can learn bad things and good things from them. Some programmers help children to understand the news, others show people and places from other countries or other time in history. With TV a child does not have to go to the zoo to see animals or to the ocean to see a ship. Boys and girls can see a play, a concert or a game at home.
