Response to Professor M., Week 6

This is very interesting Professor! I am very familiar with Nick Jr. since I have a nephew who enjoys watching it all the time. Indeed, I think these shows tell a message to kids. While my nephew is a huge fan of Blues Clues I can instantly see he relates to it much more closer than other shows on Nick Jr. such as "Dora." I simply think because Steve, the main character is male further attracts my nephew simply because he can relate more to a boy. Though my nephew is only 2yrs old I always wonder why he isn't as interested in Dora as he is in Blues Clues or perhaps Diego. Without a doubt, I simply think its due to gender. Moreover, very few cartoons nowadays focus on gender development. Indeed, I think it would be great for more cartoons to incorporate it in its script.
