Her YouTube channel, \u003c/span>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG2CL6EUjG8TVT1Tpl9nJdg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Songs for Littles – Toddler Learning Videos,\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> has over 3 million subscribers and her videos have hundreds of millions of views. The woman behind Ms. Rachel is Rachel Griffin Accurso, a preschool teacher and mother living in New York City. Her husband is a Broadway composer who helps to produce her YouTube channel. As she explained in a recent \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.today.com/parents/family/who-is-ms-rachel-rcna60194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">interview on the \u003cem>Today\u003c/em> show,\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> she started the YouTube channel because her son did not speak his first word until nearly 3 years old and she could not find a television show that targeted language development to help him. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Her YouTube channel description\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> claims that her videos “help children learn to talk, learn letters, numbers, colors, animal sounds and more!” On her website, she also states that her team works with speech language pathologists to “provide speech practice techniques on video for toddlers!” and she has a quote from a speech language pathologist saying that she uses “all of the right techniques.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ms. Rachel isn’t alone in creating “educational” shows for babies on YouTube. \u003cem>Little Baby Bum\u003c/em> has 40.8 million subscribers and claims to “support cognitive development” in its show description. A similar channel called \u003cem>Super Simple Songs\u003c/em> has over 37 million subscribers and is described as being “created by a team of educators.” \u003cem>Hey Bear Sensory\u003c/em> has 1.57 million subscribers and seems geared towards very young babies, as it features black-and-white and contrasting colors\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.science.org/doi/pdf/10.1126/science.140.3564.296\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> which are known to hold the attention of newborns.\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So is the marketing on these shows accurate? Can babies actually learn from a television show?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3 class=\"x_header-with-anchor-widget\">\u003cstrong>Is Ms. Rachel the New “Baby Einstein”?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">There has yet to be any published research on Ms. Rachel’s show or any of the more recent trends in baby shows described above. Research is very slow and can take years to catch up with popular trends. However, we \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">do\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> have a very large body of research on “baby media,” that is, media designed for infants and toddlers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most notably, there was a popular DVD series in the 1990’s and early 2000’s referred to as \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which claimed to be educational and advance the development of infants and toddlers. Interestingly, the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> series is oddly similar to Ms. Rachel’s YouTube channel. Just like Ms. Rachel, it was founded by a woman who was a mother and teacher and was hoping to boost her own child’s development. Both shows involve music, a slow pace, labeling of objects, sign language, and puppets. Both have claims of teaching infants and toddlers through their videos, with many endorsements and testimonials from parents on their websites seeming to back up these claims. Finally, just like Ms. Rachel, \u003cem>Baby Einstein\u003c/em> was widely popular among parents at the time. The Kaiser Family Foundation even reported in 2003 that \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/29/us/a-growing-number-of-video-viewers-watch-from-crib.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">32% of families with babies in the United States owned a \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> DVD.\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In 2007, a research study was published that raised serious doubts about \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and other baby media.

The infants in this study watched Baby Einstein videos several times a week for 4 weeks. In this study, the researchers compared three conditions: 1) watching the video alone, 2) watching the video with a parent and 3) not watching the video and the parent being asked to teach the words from the video during normal interactions. They found that children who watched the video (even those who watched it with their parents) did not learn any words from the video (they found no significant differences between children who watched the video and children who did not). However, in the condition where parents were instructed to teach the words over the course of normal interactions, the children did learn the words. Interestingly, parents were not great reporters of their children’s learning. Some parents reported that their children learned a lot of words but in actuality their performance was no better after watching the video. Instead the parents’ belief about how much their children learned was related to their liking of the video — parents who liked the video were more likely to think their children learned a lot from it.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Interestingly, the Walt Disney company (which bought \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in 2001) was asked by the Federal Trade Commission to remove the word “educational” from their marketing in 2006.

For example, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.today.com/parents/family/who-is-ms-rachel-rcna60194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ms. Rachel suggesting on the “Today” show\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that her shows may help a child with a language delay is a serious cause for concern, since parents may choose the easier route of turning on her show over the approaches that are actually effective for addressing a language delay, such as speech-language therapy. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you need to keep your infant or toddler safe and occupied for a few minutes, such as while you care for another child or make dinner, Ms. Rachel and other baby media might be a good choice for you. I remember turning on “Little Baby Bum” for my children in the car when they were screaming their heads off and I was worried I would get into an accident trying to soothe them. However, it is important to keep in mind that Ms. Rachel or other baby media is unlikely to advance your child’s language or development in any way. In other words, there is nothing wrong with parents seeking occasional distraction or entertainment for their infants, but parents should not view television shows as ways to improve language or teach children new skills. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are concerned about your child’s language development, seek out your local early intervention services or speech-language pathologist. These providers should be able to provide an evaluation to determine whether your child’s speech is delayed and, if needed, evidence-based services to improve your child’s language.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Cara Goodwin, PhD, is a licensed psychologist, a mother of three and the founder of \u003ca href=\"https://parentingtranslator.substack.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Parenting Translator\u003c/a>, a nonprofit newsletter that turns scientific research into information that is accurate, relevant and useful for parents.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>All Parenting Translator newsletters are reviewed by experts in the topic to make sure that they are as helpful and as accurate for parents as possible.

Just like Ms. Rachel, it was founded by a woman who was a mother and teacher and was hoping to boost her own child’s development. Both shows involve music, a slow pace, labeling of objects, sign language, and puppets. Both have claims of teaching infants and toddlers through their videos, with many endorsements and testimonials from parents on their websites seeming to back up these claims.

This DVD also included live footage of parents and children interacting and short puppet skits. The 12- to 15-month-old children in this study watched the video 15 times over six weeks.

The infants in this study watched Baby Einstein videos several times a week for 4 weeks. In this study, the researchers compared three conditions: 1) watching the video alone, 2) watching the video with a parent and 3) not watching the video and the parent being asked to teach the words from the video during normal interactions. They found that children who watched the video (even those who watched it with their parents) did not learn any words from the video (they found no significant differences between children who watched the video and children who did not). However, in the condition where parents were instructed to teach the words over the course of normal interactions, the children did learn the words. Interestingly, parents were not great reporters of their children’s learning. Some parents reported that their children learned a lot of words but in actuality their performance was no better after watching the video. Instead the parents’ belief about how much their children learned was related to their liking of the video — parents who liked the video were more likely to think their children learned a lot from it.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Interestingly, the Walt Disney company (which bought \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Baby Einstein\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in 2001) was asked by the Federal Trade Commission to remove the word “educational” from their marketing in 2006. Disney then issued a refund policy for all videos bought between 2004 and 2009 based on this research.

However, it is important to keep in mind that Ms. Rachel or other baby media is unlikely to advance your child’s language or development in any way.

The jury is still largely out about whether interactive game play is better than TV or vice versa. One could argue that the interactivity that these newer formats offer are \"better\" for kids than the lean-back nature of TV watching. Research has shown that both TV and video can provide experiences that are educational as well as harmful depending on the kind of content to which children have been exposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Kids are certainly better off watching high-quality, educational TV shows than playing video games that are either age inappropriate or which offer no educational value. The research on the educational benefits of video games is beginning to build, but risks are still well described in the research literature, especially around violent content. Intriguingly even some of the offensive play mechanics associated with some video games may be able to be turned around if placed in the right context. Recent research by neuroscientists such as Dr. Daphne Bevalier at the University of Rochester has shown that \u003cstrong>playing first-person shooter games can improve players' number sense (and consequently mathematical achievement). Others have shown that online multi-player games like \u003ca href=\"http://us.battle.net/wow/en/\">World of Warcraft \u003c/a>can improve teamwork and collaboration skills.\u003c/strong> And a study by the Mayo Clinic demonstrated the benefits of playing physical action games such as Dance Dance Revolution in developing healthy exercise habits for kids. Much of this research, however has been conducted on older players (teens and older), so we're not certain if the same benefits will hold true with younger children. For a good review of the research on games, learning and health habits, readers might wish to read the Center's report, \u003ca href=\"http://www.joanganzcooneycenter.org/Reports-18.html\">Game Changer\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Q.

Younger children spend more time with television for the simple reason that they spend less time in school. Younger kids haven't yet developed the cognitive and physical capacities to interact with or manipulate what are, in essence, representational worlds. Simply watching these representational worlds is easier. Another reason younger kids aren't playing video games is because parents are more closely regulating their media consumption. They may worry more about little fingers breaking mobile devices/laptops than TV sets.

What's the implication of children ages 8-10 spending 3.5 hours watching TV everyday? How is watching television different from playing games online, whether on a laptop or on a mobile device?\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">A. It depends. The jury is still largely out about whether interactive game play is better than TV or vice versa. One could argue that the interactivity that these newer formats offer are \"better\" for kids than the lean-back nature of TV watching. Research has shown that both TV and video can provide experiences that are educational as well as harmful depending on the kind of content to which children have been exposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Kids are certainly better off watching high-quality, educational TV shows than playing video games that are either age inappropriate or which offer no educational value. The research on the educational benefits of video games is beginning to build, but risks are still well described in the research literature, especially around violent content. Intriguingly even some of the offensive play mechanics associated with some video games may be able to be turned around if placed in the right context. Recent research by neuroscientists such as Dr. Daphne Bevalier at the University of Rochester has shown that \u003cstrong>playing first-person shooter games can improve players' number sense (and consequently mathematical achievement). Others have shown that online multi-player games like \u003ca href=\"http://us.battle.net/wow/en/\">World of Warcraft \u003c/a>can improve teamwork and collaboration skills.\u003c/strong> And a study by the Mayo Clinic demonstrated the benefits of playing physical action games such as Dance Dance Revolution in developing healthy exercise habits for kids. Much of this research, however has been conducted on older players (teens and older), so we're not certain if the same benefits will hold true with younger children. For a good review of the research on games, learning and health habits, readers might wish to read the Center's report, \u003ca href=\"http://www.joanganzcooneycenter.org/Reports-18.html\">Game Changer\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Q.

Younger children spend more time with television for the simple reason that they spend less time in school. Younger kids haven't yet developed the cognitive and physical capacities to interact with or manipulate what are, in essence, representational worlds. Simply watching these representational worlds is easier. Another reason younger kids aren't playing video games is because parents are more closely regulating their media consumption. They may worry more about little fingers breaking mobile devices/laptops than TV sets. Or believe that video games just aren't appropriate for their very young children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Q.
