Mid Morning Mayhem

threecooks by threecooks Walking(February 2007) (rank 500+)

 i'm not sure is this is advice as much as a helpful hint, My dvd and video collection was wearing a bit thin and my dear two year was growing tired or watching wiggly safari for the 100th time,

so i started recording all the abc kids shows in

the morning on my foxtel box and one with a dvd recorder could do it to.

i now have about 30 hours of kids shows on the fox box which equals about 60 shows and now he can watch a huge variety of shows and it saves buying  dvd and tapes.

if you don't have a dvd recorder you should think about getting one you will end up saving money on kids dvds

I used to record Bear
Jaidan and Chase love Bear in The Big Blue House so I would record this every morning. We had hours of it :)

taping shows

This is actually great idea. When my son was younger, I bought a couple of Elmo and Wiggles DVD. And wouldn't you know it, the exact sames shows get repeated on TV several times. If I just taped the shows, my son would have more variety.

I did that.
I had hundreds of hours of video and dvd recordings from ABC Kids, and the beauty of it is that I could cut out the cr#p so I didn't have to supervise every single time they watched tv.  It also helped with allowing me to adjust tv time to our routine instead of adjusting our routine to tv time - that was the best part.
