Phineas and Ferb Review

The long Christmas break allowed me to bond with my kids and observe one of their favorite cartoon, errr, anime.

Phineas and Ferb

If you don’t have a kid yet, most likely, you are not aware of this Disney program. I’ve been hearing from the background the audio of this show and I don’t like the bickering of the siblings.

I remember reprimanding my kids before for watching this type of cartoon because, in my assumption, they are emulating the behavior of the characters. My kids are a teen boy and a tween girl, and they do argue.

My thoughts about the cartoon changed when I watched this with them.

Though it depicts a scenario of sibling rivalry common to growing up kids, it’s epic fun given the drive of the brothers [Phineas and Ferb] for creativity, for fun and exploration. This, to me, is a good way to influence kids to be creative and explore. A lesson for adults and leaders too.
