Dont let my kids what any of that, what rubbish!!
Currently brainwashing my 4 yr old with the Jolly Phonics video!! rolleyes

:roll:
Gem u can teach me and my daughter scoobies, i cant do it, i agree with Blue train sets are much easier! My daughter was a tom boy until the age of 5, then starting going 'pink' on me confused

Her 2nd birthday present was a Thomas Train Set lol.

I think scoobies are quite universal. I taught a group of high school lads last year and they were scoobie mad, making pen covers and keyrings etc... they were loving it.
Anyway, its good for hand eye co-ordination and pattern making skills as well as ordering skills. :P So it does have some worth and how many of us adults want to be working our brains over 24/7??? so why do it to your poor kiddy winkies??? confused

Hmmm... Let them have some gruesome fun about picking bogies and dunking people in gunk... run the risk used to be my fave saturday telly programme and I turned out ok...
<ERM> <cough> Kinda ok....

I remember Chris Tarrant, Bob Carolgees and Spit the dog - bloody loved them on telly. Amused by a dog that spits. I don't comment about what my kids watch, unless it's really nasty. If I objected, it would make it so much more attractive and they'd just watch it at their mates' houses. I'd much rather they watched something in my house than sneak off somewhere else. Let them be kids.

14 Sep 2005

Sorry to say I've got no kids but on the odd time I'vr been up and seen the TV it is crap. The last half decent sat morning show was SM:TV with Ant and Dec and (slobbering now) Cat. They talked to the kids and not at the them. As for some of the things Dick and Dom do its no wonder that kids are out of control.

Our kids are looking forward to Saturday mornings again :bounce:
I'd much rather let them see food and muck being thrown about than power rangers or anything else with violence.
As for shouting 'bogies' in public places, it harmless fun that causes the kids to laugh like mad :lol2:
Having spent tonight ordering a new PC for our eldest child's 14th birthday next month makes me realise again how quick they grow up. Children aren't children for very long so in my opinion we should allow them to enjoy being a kid.

Nothing against the 'bogies' thing but please don't do it in your child's classroom - it just makes you look like an absolute prat! We had one parent who insisted on doing it and even her own child was embarrassed. lol

I expect any parent who tries that in Bev's classroom gets asked to spell it, and gets a smackbottom

if they spell it wrong, especially if they include an apostrophe! :lol:

OMG I have a Y5 class this year and every single word that ends in 's' has an apostrophe before the 's'. I just want to know how they've got away with it for so long confused

They have punctuation homework this week :smug:

Well sorry peeps, but I've been around long enough to remember (and enjoy) scoobies when they first appeared ........ and don't ask how many decades ago that was.
