Angela Santomero, co-creator of Blues Blues, creator of Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Super Why!, and the new Princess Penelope's Purse of Preposterous Things, joins us on The Mom Room this week to talk all about kids media. With a masters in child development, Angela has been a key player in bringing child psychology to kids shows by asking herself the question, 'what if you could put the very best curriculum on TV?' She has applied her "view and do" method to create some of the most highly regarded kids shows, where every moment has something in it that can help influence, inspire, and add to a child's curiosity. Despite the dangers that come with unsupervised media, including misinformation, Angela explains how to approach media so that kids will be intrinsically motivated to watch content that holds valuable learning lessons. Hopefully this episode can help show parents that screen time can be beneficial to a child's understanding of kindness, empathy, self-esteem, and motivate and inspire them to create in the real world.

Today, Lainey, Luca, and I read Goodnight, Daniel Tiger, a calm and comforting bedtime story perfect for helping little ones wind down for sleep.
In this episode of Reading With Your Kids, Jed welcomes back one of preschool media's most influential creators, Angela Santomero, to celebrate her new series, "Princess Penelope's Purse of Preposterous Things." Angela explains that Princess Penelope is a brave, kind-hearted kitten who doesn't realize how small she is. When Mother Nature grants her a magical purple purse filled with "preposterous things," Penelope must use creative and critical thinking—not just magic—to solve problems and stand up for her friends. Angela shares how this "engine" of the series helps kids learn to think, reason, and be kind, skills she believes are essential in an age of AI and constant media. Drawing on her background in child development and her groundbreaking work on Blue's Clues and Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Angela talks about "cuddle TV"—those precious moments when parents and kids watch or read together, ask questions like "What do you think will happen next?", and model deeper thinking. She highlights research showing that just 15 minutes of daily reading-for-fun can expose kids to a million new words a year and profoundly shape their futures. Angela also compares the Princess Penelope books and YouTube episodes, explaining how each medium deepens the experience in different ways. Later in the episode, Jed chats with David Gillespie, retired Air Force veteran and author of "Floo Flocky Doo to the Rescue." David shares the 26-year journey from his daughter's imaginative play to a lively, rhyming picture book that celebrates family stories, risk-taking, and nurturing a lifelong love of reading in young children.

PBS KIDS is one of the only places in kids' media that still feels like it's made by people who actually like children. It's the show your kid watches and then… somehow… can still turn the iPad off without acting like you just stole their life force (because their programming is slow paced, based on research enhancing your child's brain rather than rotting it). It's the content that teaches real skills (letters, math, emotional regulation, empathy) without turning your child into a tiny zombie who can't look away. And right now? That lifeline is being cut.This week, Kristin sits down with Sara DeWitt (Senior VP + General Manager of PBS KIDS) for a conversation every parent needs to hear, about what PBS does differently, why it matters for kids' brains, and what's at stake after federal funding was cut, including the termination of the Ready To Learn grant that helped fund PBS KIDS' education and research work.In this episode, Sara shares:Why some kids' content is designed to be impossible to turn off, and how PBS builds the oppositeWhy “developmentally appropriate” shows are rarer and rarer these days in the media outside of PBS kidsThe real impact of funding cuts (reduced staff, paused research, fewer new shows in the pipeline)The magic of Daniel Tiger (yes, we talk about the iconic “beach in the house” moment)And the story behind Carl the Collector, PBS KIDS' first series with an autistic lead character, and why this kind of representation changes kids foreverIf you've ever felt like PBS KIDS helped you survive early parenthood… if your kid has learned more from Daniel Tiger than from any parenting book on your nightstand… if you've been looking at the screen time landscape like “WE ARE NOT OK”… this one's for you.How to help (fast + doable):Watch PBS KIDS + download the apps (usage matters).Donate to your local PBS station (go to PBS.org, enter your ZIP code).Tell your story — why PBS matters to your family.

We're diving into how to solve transition battles with kids to help you move seamlessly from one activity to the next with more joy and ease. By the time you finish listening, you'll know:How to stop the ineffective "coo-coo cycle" of commands and consequences and instead become the C.E.O. of transitions - with a powerful four-step approach.1) Connection first (come alongside and notice what they have been playing with, or name it: "Boy! You have been having so much fun playing in this sand and building that castle. Look at it!"2) Direct them to their "Last thing" when you have 2-5 min. left- like they say in Daniel Tiger's episode. This gives more empowerment and makes the child feel like they ended on the note THEY choose.: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6ve0cp3) Use tools that give choice/playfulness to encourage cooperation (from the "Empowering statements" handout: https://drive.google.com/.../114xMIG_i5SZv-OzZct.../view...). This is CRITICAL. Instead of just saying "we have to go", put their brain on choices 4) "2 roads" if needed. If they continue to not be motivated by all that - give a happy choice that has a happy result, vs. sad choice and sad result. Like: "well, you can go hopping or skipping, or I will hold your hand and help your body move to the car. You choose." I love the "What should Danny do" books to reinforce this idea in a way kids really like. https://www.amazon.com/.../ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_undefined...!Check out episodes 111 and 112 for more summer parenting strategies.

“Sesame Street” recently announced it is coming to Netflix. The deal is a lifeline for the 56-year-old kids' show, which has struggled after getting dropped from HBO and now has to deal with federal funding cuts for educational programming. With public media under attack once again, Drew Goins, Molly Roberts and Monica Hesse talk about whether things like “Masterpiece Theater” or “Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood” or NPR are still important — and can still survive — in today's political and cultural landscape.

While we may well want to offer good programming to our children that directly speaks of our faith or essential Bible stories, we also want our children to learn how to live well in the world among neighbors, nature, and issues of the day. So in this episode, colleagues in ministry Sarah, Natalie, and Steve take a look at children's TV programs that aren't explicitly "Christian" but can be compatible with raising children with good social and emotional understanding, knowledge of the world, and how to deal with age-appropriate questions and situations. We'll highlight our impressions of shows like Bluey and Daniel Tiger as well as perennial favorites like Sesame Street on this week's episode of Crazy Faith Talk!

In this episode, we sit down with Principal Jon Arens, a special education teacher and dad to 3 little ones in the learning to read stages! We dive into the realities of education, parenting, and navigating the school system. This is part 1 of 2.We cover a wide range of topics, including: Why Bluey beats Daniel Tiger as a favorite and how that choice says a lot about what we value in children's content. How failing in front of your kids (like taking them to a restaurant where you can't read the menu) is actually the best thing for their growth. The role language plays in learning to read and why "don't be an expert" is actually great advice for parenting. The importance of representation in schools and why behavior charts should be banned—Jon would be shocked to see them in public schools today and didn't believe that teachers and parents reported their school uses them! What's really happening in classrooms: Class Dojo, EBD, and even padded walls (as investigated by the Chicago Tribune). The big question: Is it more valuable to train teachers or invest in new curriculum? Spoiler: Curriculum often sits in a box. Why teachers might be too nice to speak up and how school boards may not fully understand what's happening in schools. Practical advice on how to support your kids at home, from asking the right questions to staying informed on curriculum decisions.We also tackle red flag/green flag questions for schools, check-in check-out forms, equity audits, and how creating a safe environment for children enables them to take more risks and learn. Plus, why you should always watch school board meetings and who you should really email when you need answers.Visit bigcityreaders.com for more on these topics!If you have more questions after this episode, stay tuned for part 2 where we dig even deeper!
Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg and I talk about... - Understanding the basics of your child's cognitive development can help inform what you do to soothe them when they have a hard time transitioning to daycare each morning. - How important your own calm nervous system is for helping your child feel safe. - What to do in the moment at drop off when your child is crying, struggling, or having a hard time settling in. - What you can do outside the heat of the moment to build your child's ability to separate from you and relieve some of the stress surrounding going to daycare that they feel. - What a warm handoff looks like and how you can work with the daycare providers to create an environment that makes it easier for your child to say goodbye.

Today, we'll talk about my favorite item from the Always Work List from a few weeks back - the Daniel Tiger SOP. Entrepreneurship requires you to do uncomfortable stuff constantly. This gets overwhelming and leads to founders sticking with the well-worn, safe path. That leads to startups with no differentiator and no reason to exist.The Daniel Tiger SOP helps you turn intimidating tasks into manageable ones. It lets you travel a unique road, which leads to a unique product. It's as good a technique as I've found.

Angela Santomero is also an author, and one I had the chance to work with very closely over the past two years, as she asked me to be her co-author for her new book Preschool Clues: Raising Smart, Inspired, and Engaged Kids in a Screen-Filled World, which comes out one week from today! Preschool Clues shares the secret sauce behind Angela's shows' powerful, transformative results in the form of eleven research-based, foundational “clues” to ensure that preschoolers flourish academically, socially, and emotionally during this critical time.In this episode, Angela and I talk about the book—what it's about, who it's for, and how it supports parents in parenting their preschoolers and beyond. Though the book isn't written specifically for an audience of parents raising differently wired kids, the “clues” we share are relevant for any parent of any child. And the bonus? I was able to bring my unique lens as the mother of an atypical kid to the project, and so we took special care to ensure the book is inclusive of every type of child. Angela Santomero is the creator of many preschool TV shows including Blue's Clues, Super Why, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Creative Galaxy, and Wishenpoof, and was the host of The Parent Show with Angela Santomero on PBS. She has a Master's degree in Child Developmental Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University with a sub-concentration in Instructional Technology and Media.
