What Parents Need to Know
About Gerald McBoing Boing
Parents need to know that any kid who watches this show will probably turn into Gerald for at least an afternoon, communicating only with boings, beeps, and squeaks -- and chances are you'll tire of it long before he or she does. Otherwise, there are no red flags here; since it's the modern version, even the sex roles are politically correct.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how Gerald communicates. What do his different noises mean? How do people understand him? What are your favorite noises? Also, do you think it really would be fun to be Gerald? Every kid will quickly discover (and sometimes even Gerald notices) that there are just times when only actual words will do.
