What’s A Twirlywoo?

I watched a new children’s programme on CBeebies last week called the Twirlywoos; my grandson loves it.                                           

The Twirlywoos was created by Anne Wood and is narrated by Linda Bassett; the theme tune is catchy and the stop frame animation is great.

The Twirlywoos feature the Great BigHoo, Toodloo, Chickedy, Chick and Peekaboo, their unusual little creatures that look like birds without beaks. Peekaboo looks a little like an Owl.
                                                     
The children’s programme starts with a red boat crossing the sea carrying three yellow ducks as lookouts.

Once it reaches the shore the boat sounds its horn and the Twirlywoos go on an adventure to a live indoor or outdoor setting; they wait and watch and then repeat the action in their own mischievous way which always causes havoc.

So far, Peekaboo has not ventured out of the boat he can just about manage to come out from behind the wall!

I have no favourite character, they are all great.

It’s definitely worth watching, young children will love it.

Its educational teaching something new to the children in each episode; I would imagine this is how a toddler could view something new? 

In my opinion it is a lovely programme to watch, it feels spacious not clogged up with too much detail or colour, absolutely brilliant, but that’s my view.

My final thought; I wonder what Peekaboo is hiding behind the wall, it seems far more interesting than going on an adventure?

What do you think?
