Most kids love TV these days.....seems to be unavoidable.
My kids watch the Chinese TV series sometimes. I have control over the TV during weeknights (which I watch Discovery/Cookery or some overseas TV series) while they can have say during weekends. They enjoy the Disney Channel/ Japanese Channel which gives info about the different parts of Japan or Japanese Commercial World...like last night it was showing the vending machine which both myself and my kids find it facinating). They particular loves Animals Planet and the "Believe it or not" "Guinness Record series".
On average about 1-1.5 hrs during weeknights and about afew hrs during weekends.
