Question

anonymous · Answer

In the fifties if you had a television, you would be the neatest kid on the block. Even though at the beginning they only had a few shows, anything would be fun ,in 1956 some scientists did a study on how many kids ages 10-16 watched television. The results showed that the average child watched six hours of television a day which was equal to how long they went to school everyday. One of the popular shows for teenagers was American Bandstand. wingspan Clark, the star of the show, got more than fifty thousand fan letters a week. They thought watching this show was more important than doing their homework. Teenagers loved American Bandstand. Finally, the "bowling boom" came around. Everyone was hanging out in bowling alleys as a part of their entertainment. http://library.thinkquest.org/J0111064/50entertain.htm http://mps.mpsomaha.org/mnhs/Meyer%201950s%20Web/Welcome_to_the_1950s/Entertainment.html
