      • My highlights are:
      • Safety isn't an issue

      Fun for kids

      Kids, boys especially seem to like this game. Although they do destroy other players it is just lego blocks breaking apart and they always come back to life. As far as games go that involve ...

    • Book: Knight at Dawn (Magic Tree House, Book 2)

      I rate this titleonand give it4.0

      Get beginner reader series

      This book held my sons interest enough that he wanted to pick it up and read some himself. I just started reading from the Magic tree house series based on recommendations from 2 media specialists ...

      I rate this titleoffand give it1.0
      My concerns are:
      • Negative message
      • Negative role models

        dumb show

        Ok I have not sat through a whole episode but my 7 year old has seen it once and says that it is the dumbest show on TV, even more stupid than spongebob(his words). So I just thought I would share ...

      • TV: SpongeBob SquarePants

        I rate this titleiffyand give it2.0
        My concerns are:
        • Excessive violence
        • Inappropriate language
        • Excessive consumerism
        • Negative message
        • Negative role models

          This show is one the kids love and marketing gold. However I feel that it has no value. It seems there is noticable behavior changes when we allow our son to watch it. They are often rude on the ...

        • TV: iCarly

          I rate this titleonand give it4.0

            • My highlights are:
            • Positive messages

            Fun show

            Overall I think it sends positive messages and uses situations to do that, like teasing etc. It is more goofy than serious. Yet still has a point/lesson to learn rather than being just stupid. I see ...

          • TV: Wipeout

            I rate this titleonand give it3.0
            My concerns are:
            • Excessive violence

              Fine for kids during family viewing

              I think this show is ON for 6+ when watched with a parent. Kids find it very funny but you need to consider if the child understands not to try any of the stunts at home and also that in general it ...

            • DVD: Coraline

              I rate this titleiffyand give it3.0
              My concerns are:
              • Excessive violence
              • Inappropriate sexual content

                A "no" for little ones, iffy for 6-8 yr. olds, older kids should be fine

                It was an ok movie. There are a couple concerns. the biggest one that stood out where even my 7 yr old said "that was inappropiate" was when the 2 older and larger ladies perform and the ...
