The challenge is small kids, who's brains are still growing, may be affected by watching images of rapid movements in video's.  A study I read a while ago noticed the Amish had lower rates of Autism.  Video's are a good Learning tool for Chinese, but they need to be used as part of an entire holistic solution.  And some video's are better than others.
