Examines the forces driving the evolution of children's television in the US from its inception through the present day. It offers the first social history of this influential aspect of our culture, providing a comprehensive overview and analysing iconic programs to reveal how our concept of childhood has changed and how programs produced for children reflect this dynamic.

In the early days of television, suburban families welcomed TV into their homes as an electronic babysitter that would also teach their children about the world. Children''s programming soon came to play a key role in the development of mass culture, promoting the shared interests, norms and vocabulary through which children interact with peers and define themselves as a cohort.

This social history examines the forces driving the development of children''s television in the U.S., from its inception to the present. Analyses of iconic programs reveal how they influenced our concept of childhood.
