The Discovery Kids show Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls might technically be a reality show, but there are exceptions to every rule, and this show is great, period. During each fun, competitive half-hour of kids’ TV, four young friends work with professional carpenters and designers to create dream rooms to match their hobbies and interests. If you and your kids get a kick out of Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls, try some of the Get Crafty ideas at the show’s website. You can get your kid’s creative juices flowing making mobiles, glow-in-the-dark fabric curtains (how cool is that?!), or a number of other things, to turn their own room, or someone else’s, into a dream room.

The STA’s Summer Tips are ideas for projects and activities inspired by your kids’ favorite shows, to help them learn while the TV is on and after it’s off. Look for more tips all summer long, to OutSmart the 150% Summer Spike in childrens’ television viewing.
