The developments in information and communication technologies play a decisive role in our way of life, affecting everything in our lives. As a result of digital technologies, the traces of new media options that host multimedial content in social life and individual preferences have prepared the ground for radical changes in the traditional media understanding at the present point. We can say that a more visual-cultural media-oriented understanding has evolved and that this process that begins with television has gained impulses with the new media. Due to its features such as interactivity, hypermethyness, everywhere availability and user derived content production, new media and usage practices, which have taken an indispensable place in our lives, have become preferred for users who want to reach rapidly flowing information. As a result of our ways of communicating and acquiring information parallel to technological developments, the television viewing processes have also expanded and changed in this context. A different media consumption process has been developed especially by young generation and children users. In this context, considering the extending uses of television channels in the new media, in our work, the web pages of TRT Children, Baby TV and Disney Junior channels, which are television broadcasts for children of different age groups, have been studied in many ways, especially in the pre-school period, and have been attempted to identify the positive and negative aspects in the context of the impact on the mental, mental, social and cognitive development of children.
