Why is there more kid stuff on TV than on the radio?

Because kids have short attention spans and need blinding visual images in ordered to keep the attention.

I think because of what kids are expose to nowadays, they feel they need picture and sound to to get there attention, where kids in the past had to use there imagination more, so yeah.

Why listen to the radio when there's new technology.
It's good to embrace technological progress.

I can't understand why there's little for kids on the radio. When I was little I sure listened to the radio and we sure had TV then.
Honestly, if they make CD's and tapes for children, then they could surely, in this day and age, have radio shows for children as well, like in the old days.
I will admit, I prefer TV, but only because radio mostly just has music (which I love) and talkback (which I loathe) and TV has more of a smogesboard. I do meet peole who prefer radio because they like to leave things to their imagnation. Then again, how often does one hear Muppets on the radio?!

I not a big fan of TV these days, it's just not what it used to be and I'm not even that old. Personally, and it's the same with radio. Personally I prefer Internet and satilite radio, and I like Movies, The Internet, movies, video games, good old fashion reading, or anything else to television these day's. I never thought I be saying that.
