Prosocial or skill-building media discussion
As I mentioned in this thread: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postp3333084.html#3333084
I wanted to build a list of prosocial or skill-building media. We recently stumbled on to several TV shows that have offered better modeling for my son's behavior, and I realized that parents here probably have a wealth of knowledge about what's out there. I think kids on the spectrum can really benefit from media, and when I read this article, I began to search for TV shows that could help my son understand the world a bit better. If you're interested in discussing media and how it can be used as a tool to help our kids, this is the place!
We've had a lot of help from http://www.commonsensemedia.org/ where you can search by age or by content.
I found this general article on prosocial video games to be very interesting: http://www.education.com/reference/arti ... deo-games/
So, discuss away!
