Another tool for increasing exposure to Cantonese is Cantonese Stories. There are many to be found on YouTube, and is often a good compromise for those who have a limited screentime policy. Some come with animation (though less than cartoons) and some are almost entirely audio, and can be enjoyed with the visual.
