&gt; issue judgement on what toddlers would like<p>The issue here isn&#x27;t really what toddlers like or don&#x27;t like.  The issue is, if you&#x27;re going to sit your kid in front of a screen to watch something, what are they getting out of it?  A 3- or 4-year old seeing 6-year old behavior in Big Bird sees a role model in how to behave.  Seeing 3-year-old behavior in Elmo reinforces how they&#x27;re already behaving.
