Tv for toddlers

[Letsallscreamatthesistene]

Following on from another thread, my baby is 12months old now and im thinking about tv for him, just for little snippets of the day whilst I need to do things. What programmes are good? Im a bit lost

Anything from ceebies is a good place to start. Tik tak, in the night garden (it’s a bit long) moon and me, Hey Duggee.

Mother Goose Club (sorry in advance)

CBeebies has a baby section on iplayer

Cbeebies is great - loads of programmes that are about 5 minutes. Tiktak is brilliant - very calming. Teletubbies is a classic.

Twirlywoos - fun and is great for some language development x

I miss watching twirly woos!!

Avoid Bing like the plague

My options for time filling in increments go like this (all Cbeebies):

Hey Duggee (7 mins)
Teletubbies (14 mins)
Moon and Me (22 mins)
In the Night Garden (30 mins)

And as pp said, never, ever watch Bing. It will make you want to scratch out your eyes!

Baby tv if you have the channel

Songs for Littles on YouTube

I can't believe Bing is allowed to be on TV.

I can't believe Bing is allowed to be on TV.

The only place that Bing should be allowed in in a pie

Gosh my DC is not even 3 and I already struggle to remember what she watched at 1! I thiiink: Twirly Woos, In the Night Garden, Something Special, Teletubbies, Yakka Dee.

Hey Duggee

In the Night Garden

Moon & Me

The Clangers

Anything on CBeebies except Bing.

Baby club is a good option too for that age. (Cbeebies)
Pick something you will tolerate longer term!

Thanks everyone! Really helpful. Whats wrong with Bing?!

Cbeebies is the best.

Bing is a dick.

Bing is incredibly irritating...not least because he says loads of words wrongly, which I hate!

I have an 18 month old. He loves Teletubbies and Moon and Me. We also watch Hey Duggee, but I probably like it more than he does!

Peppy Pig, Shane the Chef and Ben & Holly are favourites in our house.

All the ceebeebies as mentioned above

Super simple songs on you tube and Dave and Ava

The Clangers!! Lovely music, looks beautiful, interesting stories, and nobody is ever deliberately badly behaved and they always apologise and fix their mistakes.

Also Mr Tumble who turns up in random CBeebie programs and on YouTube.

There are lots of nursery rhymes on YouTube but make sure you watch them before you let your little one do so you can find your favourite version (and avoid some Aussies who wear brightly coloured clothes or dressing up outfits.)

Just put CBeebies on live and watch whatever, while they are 1 and not yet expressing opinions on viewing choices. All the CBeebies programmes are thoughtfully made and promote good values as well as being beautiful and fairly bearable for her adults. Apart from Bing obviously.
