The San Diego Zoo kids channel is a channel for kids in hospitals. Someone who works at the hospital with the kids probably feel good to see kids enjoying animal videos and forgetting about their pain for a little while. This is stated in the article "For kids who are sick or injured, forgetting for just a little while about why they are in a hospital can be a step toward recovery. And connecting with wild animals can help. The videos show creatures from all over the world.”  Also, the article stated, “There might be sharks, meerkats, or gorillas. They might be eating, playing, or receiving care. At the same time, educators provide fun facts for kids. They share maps showing the animals' natural environments. The video footage adds to the popular in-person show-and-tell. Trainers introduce hospitalized kids to smaller animals like snakes, anteaters, jellyfish, and crabs.!" This quote proves that the workers are trying their best to make it seem like a zoo. They watch animals on TV's and this also helps them.

The San Diego channel does a lot for the kids at the hospital, Usually, the kids in the hospitals cannot go to the zoo because the animals might carry germs that could be harmful to sick kids and it would be difficult to bring wildlife to the hospital. That's where the hospital video projects help. They give many kids a chance to see wildlife even in the hospitals.

The channel began because of a Businessperson and philanthropist T. Denny Sanford. He gave the money to create the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel. The TV network is spreading to hospitals around the U.S. He thought it was a good idea to get kids in to the animal life because the kids needed a distraction from their injuries. So, he came up with the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel.

In summary, the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel began because of a man named T. Denny Sanford.  It helped kids at hospital forget about their pain and help them recover faster.  Concludingly, the plans of the Channel is very big. They want to make the program spread to the whole world starting from the U.S.

The San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is cheering up he kids in the hospital and making them forget all about that they are in the hospital. The channel is made to cheer up the kids and make them happy when they see animals. I think its a good idea because kids love it.first, the kids love it because somethimes they bring small animals to the kids foe entertainment. the article states "Trainers introduce hospitalized kids to smaller animals like snakes and crabs." This shows that some kids get to see the animals in real life. to sum it up, I think kids love these things for entertainment.

Another way this show helps is that the kids get there mind on ONLY the animals. According to the text "He says the show is good for the kids. It takes their minds off being in the hospital." This proves that kids dont have their minds on the hospital, only the animals. To sum it up, kids now have a way to have their mind off the hospital.

I believe that a staff member working at a children's hospital would describe the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel in a positive way. As  described in the article, the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is a large TV network that shows hospital video programs created by the zoo.  The programs include animal "stories" that give information about different animals and also show some video footage of the animal from cameras set up in its habitat at the zoo. A hospital employee would most likely say that this channel is a wonderful idea and that it is an exciting way for kids who are sick to escape their troubles while in the hospital.  "For kids who are sick or injured, forgetting for just a little while about why they are in a hospital can be a step toward recovery. And connecting with wild animals can help." This proves, that someone that works at the hospital would describe the zoo positively. As you can see, the San Diego Zoo Kids channel programs have a positive impact on both the children's hospital patients and staff.

Businessman and philanthropist T. Denny Sanford helped start the channel by giving money to the zoo and the creators of the channel. The text states, "T. Denny Sanford gave the money to create the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel. The TV network is spreading to hospitals around the U.S. Sanford and others hope that it will eventually reach hospitals around the world."

The channel shows the animals playing, being attended to, cared for and eating. I think the zoo channel is a great idea because it sets children's minds on something else besides being in the hosptial. The text states, "The show is good for the kids. It takes their minds off being in the hospital." This explains that the channel is a great way to keep kids entertained and focused on the show" and off their own problems for a little while.

It was just a normal day at Rady's Children's Hospital a bunch of sick kids depressed. I wanted to make them feel better the best I could. Suddenly, a couple days later I saw a kid watching TV. I went inside to see what was making him smile.Then I saw the TV was on the San Diego Zoo kids channel. So I went to the other rooms and all the kids were smiling watching TV and on the same channel. So I asked a doctor "Why is this show making these kids so happy?" "The kids love the animals at the zoo and it makes them feel better and forget why they're here in the hospital. This might be a step closer to heeling. As days went by the kids were feeling better from this shown and I felt so happy.

I think the show idea is a good one. The text states, "For kids who are sick or injured, forgetting for just a little while about why they are in a hospital can be a step toward recovery." This shows if kids are feeling better from watching the animals than it's a good idea because it helps kids and a hospitals job is to try to help people get better. To conclude, the show idea is a very good one,.

One reason that the San Diego Kids Zoo Channel is so good is that it lets kids see live animals that they can not visit while they are sick because the animals may carry diseases.  For example, "The animals might carry germs. This could put some young patients in danger during their recovery. That's where the hospital video projects help out." This proves that the channel is good because the animals may carry diseases which might be bad during the kids recoveries. All in all one reason the San Diego Zoo Channel is good is that it lets kids see animals that they normally cant because they are in the hospital.

The zoo channel from the point of view of someone at the hospital would be happy. In the text " Bringing The Zoo To You it says" it is something for the hospitalized kids to take their minds of of and forget why they are at the hospital. Also it makes them very happy that they get to see their favorite animals from the hospital live. This proves it makes the nurses and surgeons happy because the kids are smiling so it makes them smile. To sum it up the nurses love watching the kids smile. The channel began because the kids were upset they were in the hospital so they couldn't see their favorite animals, but now that the channel has started it gives kids the opertonity to see their favorite animals live from the hospital.

I think that the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is a great idea. An example from the article is "The sight of an unfamiliar animal can be a welcome distraction, even a short-term remedy, for a sick child. But you can't just march a rhino through the front door of a hospital for a visit. That's why zoos and aquariums across the U.S. are teaming up with pediatric hospitals. They are beaming in video footage of sea otters getting their teeth brushed, tiger cubs getting belly rubs, and pandas munching on bamboo." This shows that the channel was created by zoos, aquariums, and pediatric hospitals, and its purpose is to distract kids from the fact that they are in the hospital. I think that it is a good idea to have the channel because kids can be distracted by the fact that they are in the hospital and be happy and entertained by the videos. In conclusion, I think that the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is a great idea.

Something that  someone would say about the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel would be that it entertains the children. It is a channel that provides the children at the hospital with animals. The channel would show baby tigers getting their belly rubbed and show all the normal animals you would see at the zoo. Yes, the channel is a good idea because the animals have germs that the children don't want to get. Another reason is that the kids could even ask questions. My third and final reason is that the children can see what other people can't see if they go to the zoo. The children could see the sea otters getting their teeth brushed as others can't. To sum it up the San Diego Zoo Kids Channel was a good idea.

I think that they would be saying that they love that the kids are getting to see animals without touching them and getting them more sick. According to the article, it says that '"It is a perfect match, an opportunity for us to bring the zoo to children who can't come to the zoo because they are in the hospital," he said.'"  This quote proves that one person said that he likes to see people happy when there sick and stuck in the hospitial. Another quote is that "There are two big benefits, said aquarium education director Dave Bader. The show is good for the kids. It takes their minds off being in the hospital. It's also good for those who create the program."  this quote proves that it is not ok for the kids to see it up in person but it is allowed on video though and it gets there mind off of the hospitial and their sickness.

the channel is a good one because it shows wild life to people that cant see wild life in person not just the sick people but other people as well. According to the text it says " Schwartz says that it takes some work to get shows ready. The tapes have to be edited down to the good stuff. Then, this material is used to create an interesting show. "  This quote proves that it is special to the kids because their learning new things by a show.  Another quote is " The sight of an unfamiliar animal can be a welcome distraction for a sick child. " this quote proves that it can be new to some people and some others they are not new but they get distracted by all of the cute little animals. To sum it up I think the channel is really good for sick people to get distrated and just look at the beauitful animals.

The San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is a great way to take the kids' minds off of thinking or worrying about why they are in the hospital.  The channel allows the kids to learn about the animals and experience what it's like to be in a zoo.  It is an enjoyable escapade for these hospitalized children.  It is always so depressing to see the sad children think about why they are there.  They have nothing good to think about.  It just makes me feel so bad.  So, when I heard the news about the new channel, I was so excited because I thought that it could be a chance to make the kids forget about their troubles so they can be happy.  Seeing them happy makes me happy.  When the channel first came out, I had a patient to think about more than just why he was there.  So I came in and turned on the TV.  When I put on The San Diego Zoo Channel on, their face just lit up.  It made me so glad to see a sad child cheered up by the channel.  Other employees that work here in the hospital with me have noticed that their patients look happier now too.  While the shows are not only entertaining, they are also just really special because the channel was designed specifically for them, which must make them fell good, and seeing footage of the animals that nobody else could ever get to see would be pretty exciting for them.  When the channel came out I had expectations of seeing a child laugh, or smile, or something.  However, reality exceeded my expectations - by a long way. My patients were just so happy their minds just stopped thinking, watched the show, and (temporarily) completely forgot about why they were there.  To them, it just felt like a normal day sitting on the couch at home watching television.  So, I am beyond excited to see my patients well and happier than when they came.
The whole thing started because the hospitalized children were so sad, and since they aren't well enough to the zoo, the zoo was brought to them through TV.  The channel plans to continue to make kids happy and to put smiles on their faces by continuing to use the channel.  This person thinks that the channel is a good idea.  This is because this person thinks that The San Diego Zoo Channel is a big distraction from reality and their own troubles.  It is like their own private escape from everything they don't want to be in.

The San Diego Zoo Kids Channel is a good idea. A quote from the text says: "For the kids, watching the videos can be a welcome break. After seeing sea otters get their teeth brushed, one child asked about penguins. Don't they need to get their teeth brushed? The answer was short and sweet. No teeth, no problem." This quote proves that when the children are watching the videos, it makes them comfortable because if they watch it a lot, they will probably want to watch it more. Even when they are out of the hospital and at home. They still might want to watch it. Plus, when they when they are getting shots, they might not even feel it because they are use to watching the live show.

staying at the hospital can sometimes be boring for children and kids think is it torture to come but the new videos that kids can watch about the animals at the zoo changes that opinion. The channel began because the zoos thought if a kid is sick and wants to see a rhino at the zoo they cant just bring the rhino into the hospital so they thought f the channel. I think it i a good idea because if kids love the zoo and want to go but are hurt they cant go but watching and asking questions about the animals can change that.
