There are a lot of educational TV programmes for kids．Some educational shows for kids will not only  1  their lives，but also make their parents’ lives a little  2  ．

At school，our kids learn a lot of  3  ．On TV，they  4   learn more of the same．But．there’s a lot of life information that kids need to learn，  5   how to keep their drawers clean and tidy and how to   6   their study．Some people may say，“It’s parents’ job to  7  them．”That may be so，  8  who says a parent can’t teach indirectly（间接地）by making a kid see a TV show with useful information?

Most parents will be more likely to agree  9  teachers and other authority figures（权威人士）．But sometimes they seem to  10  more weight to our kids．At school，for example，my kids try to get their coats on the hooks（挂钩）when they  11  at classroom．These same coats are never hung up at  12  ．One reason is that we think it’s quicker to do these things by  13  instead of asking our kids to do their parts．That’s  14   many kids go off to college without any idea how to deal with basic things．

So，I’ll let my kids  15  more programmes like“THE FLOOR IS NOT A DRAWER”，“I’M OLD ENOUGH” and so on．
