Moments with Yaya

Showtime

Yaya loves a good show! Whether it’s her favourite TV show, or a school concert, watching people act in a show is one of her favourite things. Her jaw drops with excitement as she watches her favourite characters acting. There is usually a story in the show that she watches, which makes it interesting to her, and can often teach her something. Yaya loves shows that have singing in them, as she loves to sing along to the catchy songs.

Showtime can be a movie, a series, a live show or an act. In all of these circumstances, there are people who are acting on a story, singing or teaching us a lesson in life. Some shows can be sad, however, there are a lot of shows that make us laugh and feel good. Yaya especially loves shows that have her favourite Disney characters in them, like princesses and princes. She loves to pretend she is in the show, and acts as if she is a real princess.

Did you know that the very first television advert was broadcasted in the 1940’s? Before then, people only watched shows in theatres, where people acted out their stories in plays. One of the very first TV shows for children ever aired was The Jetsons, which was only aired in 1962. Today, some of the most popular TV shows for children include SpongeBob Square Pants, Pepper Pig, Barney and Dora the Explorer. Today we have so many options when it comes to watching a show. We have DVD’s, cinemas, live shows at theatres and schools, and a host of options on the television.

Shows can be watched on the television, at the movies on the big screen, or live on a stage. Shows for children can capture comedy, love, excitement and much more. Children become enthralled with excitement as their favourite characters prancing around, in their costumes making children laugh and sing along to their songs. In most cases, children’s TV shows are just as much fun for grownups to watch as well. Yaya loves to watch her favourite shows with her dad, they laugh together and she loves to tell him what she enjoys about the story’s they tell. When Yaya watches her favourite shows, she often pretends that she is in character, and dresses up and dances around singing her favourite songs from the show. Any show, be it a television or live show, can bring so much happiness and wonder to a child and adult alike!
