To ban Bing

3 year old ds recently got really into Bing. I like Flop. (I know the whole programme is a bit strange!) In all seriousness though I do think it contributed to a decline in behaviour as he’s becoming so whiny and he never was before. He also keeps saying ‘I caaaan’t’ which is a direct Bing quote.

I am wondering if anyone else noticed this. And are there any other programmes with more positive role models he might enjoy? I’ve tried Bluey but he really doesn’t like it.

Any idea why Pando just strips off to his pants constantly? His minder doesn’t say a word - just picks them up and folds them up.

Also excuse the username. Friends reference but I realise on this thread it may be a poor choice 😂

DP reckons Flop, Ama, etc are actually the parents, they just look like that because it's from the kid's point of view and kid's don't see adults as real people.

My daughter took ages to stop watching Bing. He's an annoying little prick. The butterfly episode? I thought that was a bit like of mice and men 🙄

Totally agree.
Bing needs skinning and putting in a pie. That’s the only use for the whining little shit.

Bing is such a whinging bitch. I do seriously wonder about all the moaning having an impact on kids.

Me (53)and DH (59) LOVE nanny plum. Sadly our 2 are way too old for Ben and Holly now

I catch my now ten year old watching it and I sit and join her. I also - as I said earlier, sometimes watch it on my own....

😃
