She hardly gets to see any TV other than Sesame Street, Wiggles (DVD) and Curious George. She knows Mickey Mouse because its there in her diapers, and Nemo because I showed her the movie a few times to get her excited about her new 'Nemo Room' that we are working on.
Her pull-ups are the Disney Princess, but only because thats what they carry in Costco. I have NEVER mentioned the word princess to her, calling them 'Pretty Girls' instead.
She comes home today and picks up a book that she hadn't seen in a few weeks and says,
"Princess Princess! Amma, I want Princess stories!".
Not sure I'd heard her right, I asked her where there were Princesses. The book was Cinderella story, I said. She promptly goes to the room and brings her pull-up and shows me the "Princesses"!!
I about passed out!
I DON'T want her to get into this HUGE commercialized Princess thing that Disney has going. I loved fairy tales while growing up, but Disney is carrying everything too far. I would rather she knows them and is still interested in other things rather than just the Princess stuff that every 2-5 old seems to be.
