BabyFirstTV also has an agreement with Sterling Publishing (owned by Barnes and Noble) to incorporate many children books into their “Story Time” program.
• Interactive Subtitles - just like reading a book together: As BabyFirstTV encourages parents to have an active role, the channel offers unique parents’ subtitles for parents to guide them on words and movements to use with baby during the programs - making the experience as educational and engaging as reading a book.
• 360 Degrees Developmental Content: The program content focuses on the most important areas of development ranging from language and math to sensory skills, creative play and even baby “gym”.
• 24/7 Programming: We offer 24/7 programming, as well as video-on-demand (VOD) capabilities to help provide you with access to our programming when and where you need it.

Each show offers elements that can appeal to younger babies and older toddlers simultaneously, so children at various levels and age groups can focus on something different within the same program.

It is oddly entertaining to Chris and I as we catch ourselves staring aimlessly at the TV, just as Rowyn does... and singing the songs that we have had embedded into our heads after hearing them over, and over...
Some of Rowyns favorite shows are:

Danny & Daddy,
Tilli Knock Knock,

Harry the Bunny,

Picture Pad,
Petey Paintbrush,
Squeak,
Tec the Tractor,
Shushybye Baby,

The Numbers Farm.
Rowyn has become really vocal lately which is totally fun. Here are some pictures and in the video she is talking to the TV...pretty cute...

I do need to post one more thing... My husband has the worst habit... He is so dang STUBBORN... on this particular night, I called him and asked him if he wanted me to run buy the liquor store to re-stock his "man cave" fridge...

"Nah" he said.

.... pretty much blowing me off before he actually had time to think about what I was saying, ... "Hello, I said B-E-E-R"... lol...

you know men... never want to talk on the phone, always in a hurry to get off the phone... anyways i asked again...

"I am running by there either way" I said.(wanted to get myself a bottle of wine

"Are you sure you dont want me to pick you some up?"

"Nah, I'll be alright" he said.

Urrrggghhh, So knowing that its baseball season, and knowing that by the time i made it home, he would be sitting in his recliner out in his "man cave" screaming obscenities at the television. I went ahead and picked some up.

Then shortly after that, my sister and i decided to order some chinese food.

"Babe, Do you want some chinese food?"

"Nah" he said.

"Are you sure, you havent had any dinner?"

"Nah" he said.

"Do you want me to pick you up somting else while im out picking up the chinese?"

"Nah' he said.

Originally, I had plans to visit my friend, Joy, who had flown in from Colorado, which is why I didnt have dinner already made that night.

"Are you sure?"

"YES, I'M SURE!" he replied, in a (your irritating me) voice.

"Ok, Ok...well we will be back in a few minutes"

Sharon and I ran to town, picked up the food...came home, made our plates, ate... and were just about to wrap it all up to stick back in the fridge...when Guess Who comes slinkin' in the kitchen.

"What did yall get?" he said.

I knew exactly where this was going...lol

"Sesame Chicken" we replied.

"Do you want some? We were just about to stick it in the fridge."

"There is plenty." I said. "Lots of Rice, Noodles, Hot & Sour Soup"

By this time, he is muling around the bar/island in the kitchen, looking all the food over....

"Well, Sharon and I are going to watch Tv" I said.

Shortly after that... I went out to the "man cave" to tell him good night.... I was tired, and I wanted to go ahead and hit the sack...

This is what i found. Beer in one hand, Chinese food in the other. I laughed at him as i said(and snapped a quick pic)

"I thought you didnt want any beer."
"I thought you didnt want any chinese"

MEN...STUBBORN, STUBBORN, STUBBORN!...
