Knowledge, Learning, Community
Talk about your Mickey Mouse courses. The service is directed toward preschoolers and offers a range of interactive activities featuring Disney characters. "Puzzles, games and other learning activities will be updated each week and can be personalized to guide children on a structured path to kindergarten readiness." Pricing for the service is expected to be about $49 per year, which may make it almost irresistable to parents. It sounds great, and it is: but my question is, can we trust Disney to keep the content free of marketing, free of political bias, free of cultural and religious messages?
