Infulences on Infants

• Teletubbies- BAD Although very colorful children
  are unable to identify correct pronunciation of
  words because characters speak in a slightly
  different tongue. Also some of the actions that
  are repeated are ones that should not be done and
  confuses children to think it is acceptable. In
  addition the activities the teletubbies interact
  in are not relevant to the human society today.
