Ruby discussing the art project of making their friendship tree

Ruby’s Studio The Friendship Show by the Mother Company is a movie set to help children understand what friendship is for and how to behave with friends. Ruby (played by Kelsey Collins) is the host of the show and is very energetic as she walks her four friends/classmates through educational points of friendship and has many featured animated segments and songs to break up the movie to keep children engaged.

I was provided a digital download to watch this show with my 4 year old daughter. I wasn’t sure how she would like it since it wasn’t a show about her favorite mouse or her favorite spanish speaking cartoon that has a monkey as a friend. In the first two minutes my daughter got excited about a rainbow and about how excited “Ruby” was in her opening! The show also gave me a fun art project that I can do with my daughter about making a friendship tree for a good friend. I hope to try this soon since I have all the supplies at home already!

The kids working on their art project. They are making a friendship tree for one of their friends.

It kept my daughter engaged and I was able to ask her some of the questions that Ruby was asking her “friends”.

Why are friends so important?
My daughter answered with because it is nice to share.

Who is your friend?
Delaney.

What do you like to do what your friends?
Play and sing.

We engaged in other conversation.  My daughter really liked it.  I actually have had “The Feelings Show” for a couple of years.  I tried to have my daughter watch it at the age of 2 and she was too young.  She is now 4 and we had popcorn and watched the entire 45 minutes together.

    “How would you choose which movies your kids watch?” I have a 5yr old and 4mth old so right now I pick which movies they watch. If my oldest wants to watch something I don’t think is appropiate for him at his age I just tell him he’s not able to watch that until he’s older. So far that’s working.

    Now that my kids are 21 and 17, I don’t tell them what they can and can’t watch. We three do watch movies together though, and when it’s my turn to pick, I usually choose comedies.

  32. AvatarWendy Lindsey says

    August 10, 2013 at 9:22 pm

    I typically do an internet search and read the reviews first. I also like the parental info on IMBd which tells you EVERYTHING that might possibly be considered inappropriate or offensive.

  35. AvatarTheresa Wilson says

    August 10, 2013 at 10:08 pm

    I always check ratings and block any channels that should be blocked

  36. AvatarD. Stone says

    August 10, 2013 at 10:35 pm

    They are getting rid of the “G’ rating so I may not be taking them to movies anymore. It’s getting harder and harder to find movies that aren’t violent. So sad.

  37. AvatarAshley Nolan says

    August 10, 2013 at 10:45 pm

    August 11, 2013 at 9:22 am

    My kids are teens so we are pretty lenient with what movies they are allowed to watch. When they were younger, we used passwords on our tv, blocking certain channels, ratings, and subject matter.

  46. AvatarLaura P. says

    August 11, 2013 at 10:04 am

    Some Ebooks and maybe some K-cups.

  47. AvatarMaggie C says

    August 11, 2013 at 10:27 am

    I look at what they’re interested in and evaluate it from there with age-appropriateness.

  48. AvatarSteve Z says

    August 11, 2013 at 10:49 am

    I personally don’t have kids, but we are planning on kids, and I am going to thoroughly look into the movies they are trying to watch and I feel that imdb is a pretty good resource as they have the parental warnings. I look back at the movies that I watched when I was little and wonder how they got the rating that they did with all of the sexual undertones that are in them.

  49. AvatarAshley Leonard says

    August 11, 2013 at 11:42 am

    Netflix is pretty good at suggesting stuff for him 😛

  50. AvatarYna says

    I check rating but usually we will see previews, or watch trailers on them.

  65. AvatarCristina says

    August 12, 2013 at 7:00 am

    I watch the trailers and usually ask on Facebook if anyone has seen it for reviews. Usually if you google the name of the movie and search why the movie is pg or pg 13 it will give you details as to what parts may be questionable.

  66. AvatarErika C. says

    August 12, 2013 at 8:38 am

    I check the rating on the movie. Thankfully they have only liked G and PG movies

  67. AvatarChris Martinez says

    August 12, 2013 at 8:42 am

    Ratings and the age of my child. I also google the movie and look for details in reviews.

  121. AvatarLu Ann Worley says

    August 13, 2013 at 7:23 pm

    I would order a book. My grandkids parents have locks on the channels and teach them to avoid watching things on TV ad movies which are not within principles taught.
    Raise up a child as to the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.
    That is a very poor quote but it is true. If parents are diligent in teaching with love and example, the child will make mostly good choices. We cannot control them. We have to teach then trust them.

    I check out reviews before I let my kids watch a movie, and I watch it with them…. it seems lots of kids movies now have very vulgar remarks… ones i wouldn’t want my kids repeating!

    my son is two so it is more visual than content, though i am starting to monitor that as well! generally something that looks cute and perhaps has a good lesson along the way is what we prefer to watch! generally animation is favored by my son too! 🙂 thanks for the great giveaway!

    Some movies that are rated for children, I don’t approve of, due to references they might make. I have watched every movie they have watched! I often can trust Pixar and Disney always for a good movie!

    If I have any questions about a movie, I look the title up online. Detailed reviews, especially from another mom’s point of view, are always so helpful!

    My son is just 4 and I am HIGHLY selective about what he watches. If it’s not educational or made for preschoolers (Dinosaur Train, Superwhy, Thomas, Curious George, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, etc) I screen it first.

    It’s hard to put a finger on exactly what criteria I’m looking for. I just know. RIO is a favorite of ours. It’s fantastic. Toy Story 3 is a no because the garbage scene is terrifying and most of the concept is just over his head. SpongeBob is a no in our house. Anything marketed for kids older than him (like the live action Disney shows…I don’t know all their names). But believe it or not, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (the Johnny Depp version) is on our ok list.

    We use the rating as a loose guideline, but typically my kids don’t watch things that I haven’t seen beforehand. Sometimes the MPAA ratings seem so arbitrary, so we don’t feel like we can go only based on that.

  161. AvatarKateV says

    August 14, 2013 at 10:17 pm

    I work at a school age child care, and we do sometimes put on movies for the kids. We have to start with the ratings, but we also have to have viewed the movie ourselves to make sure there’s nothing questionable. Then, it goes by kids interests and age levels.
