The TVI Take
The original Fred Rogers series about the Neighborhood of Make-Believe and the real world. Educational value across all five TVI dimensions is exceptional, particularly emotional intelligence.
The research on Rogers's impact on children's emotional development is substantial. The craftsmanship of the emotional honesty is extraordinary — no children's media has equaled it.
