What Is A Prairie Dog?

I watched little Prairie Dogs on CBeebies the other day, my grandson watched with interest.

This children’s programme tells the story of brother and sister Prairie Dogs Tate and Sage and their adventures exploring their home on the North America’s prairies.

It’s a wonderful wildlife programme for children, with sounds and other wildlife shown. 

Kate Sachs narrates.

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

In my opinion, it’s a great children’s programme that show animals in their own environment.

My final thought, it’s educational, enjoyable and fun to watch!

Who’s Ann Teak?

I watched Gigglebiz on CBeebies one afternoon when my grandson was sleeping.

This children’s television programme is a live action comedy sketch show, ideal for all the family to watch.

The theme tune is catchy and great to sing-along to.

Justin Fletcher plays a lot of characters. He’s brilliant, very funny and is a great entertainer.

My favourite character is Ann Teak (a play on words) she is suppose to be an antiques expert but knows nothing about antiques. She usually ruins or breaks whatever she’s examining.

It’s definitely worth watching, older children and adults will love it. 

In my opinion, Justin Fletcher is in a league of his own; a very talented man and a master of disguise!

My final thought; it’s enjoyable and fun to watch.

Who’s Big and Small?

I watched Big and Small on CBeebies the other day with my grandson.

This is a children comedy series featuring puppets, one big and one small, they live together in a house and garden in the countryside.

The two best friends don’t always see eye to eye however they always resolve the issue and are friends again by the end of the show.

The puppets Big and Small are voiced by Lenny Henry, the other puppets are voiced by Imelda Staunton.

It’s definitely worth watching if you’re into puppets, music and comedy.

In my opinion, very young children may not understand some of the story lines. 

My final thought; what type of creature is Big? and Small?

Who’s Timmy?

I watched Timmy Time on CBeebies the other day with my grandson.

Timmy Time was created by Jackie Cockle.

The stop motion animation is great, the theme tune catchy.

It’s a delightful children’s television series about a little lamb called Timmy and his nursery antics.

Timmy likes to do things differently from his animal friends usually disrupting the class in the process, however he always learns from his mistakes.

The storylines are wonderfully creative and humorous.

My favourite character is Timmy his facial expressions have me in stitches.

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

In my opinion, it’s a great children’s television series that encourages friendship.

My final thought; the start of the series is particularly beautiful, when all the young animals dance towards the nursery.

On the sidelines you see Timmy handing his dummy to his mummy it’s so adorable, he’s a big lamb now going to nursery it’s just great to see such detail.

What’s Tinga Tinga?

I watched Tinga Tinga on CBeebies the other morning with my grandson. He loves the brightly coloured animals.

The fusion of Tingatinga Art combined with African folk tales are shown in wonderful animation all thanks to Claudia Lloyd the series creator.

This delightful children’s television series is based on African folk tales and is narrated by a Red Monkey voiced by Eugene Muchiri / Geoffrey Curtin.

The music and catchy theme tune was produced by Eric Wainaina.

It’s very amusing I must admit it’s one of my favourite children’s television series so far.

All the animals have different accents. The elephant is voiced by Lenny Henry.

The storylines, songs and animation are great, it’s definitely worth watching the children will love it. 

In my opinion, it’s a great children’s television series that encourages friendship, teamwork and leadership.

My final thought; it’s enjoyable and fun to watch even for adults!

What’s A Groovy Move?

I watched Show Me Show Me on CBeebies with my grandson the other morning he especially likes the ‘show me your groovy moves’ part.

In a playgroup on the top floor of a tower we listen to stories, sing songs, play games and have fun with the presenters Chris Jarvis and Pui Fan Lee.

They’re so energetic I don’t know where they get all their energy from.

The children’s television series features the toys; Stuffy, Mo Mo Bot, Miss Mouse, Toddler Tom and Teddington Bear, they are all very good actors too!

My favourite character has to be Pui. I like it when she dresses up as a nursery rhyme character and wants to buy something from the shop, it’s very amusing.

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

In my opinion, it’s a great children’s television series for young children, very educational. The theme tune is catchy too.

My final thought; Chris and Pui are very entertaining and funny to watch.
