Which cbeebies progs are good?

[MamaMia100]

Calling all cbeebies experts! I have just had a new baby and my resolve to limit my 2-year old's tv viewing has gone out the window. We have only ever watched the bedtime hour before. Any advice on good programs suitable for a 2 and a half year old? Thanks!!

DS's 5 & 3 favourites include Dip Dap (I love it), Something Special & Show Me, Show Me. When DS 1 was about 2 his favourite was Balamory, DS2 favourite is Peppa Pig (not Cbeebies though).

I also like Tinga Tales but the boys aren't bothered with it.

Whatever you do just don't watch numberjacks. Enough to give anyone nightmares

my DS favourites are Octonauts, Charlie and Lola, Chuggington. Balamory

He likes waybuloo but I have to leave the room, it's too poncetastic

Numberjacks is very weird

Numberjacks are just bizarre

Number Jacks taught my ds to swear with their 'buddy blocks'.
He now calls his toy bricks 'bloody blocks'.... so beware!

Loves baby jake
glazes with boredom at mr bloom (even though mums think hes lovely)!
octonaughts OK
chuggington of course (he's a boy)
squeals with laughter at dip dap!
getting a bit bored with night garden sadly (babyhood gone!)
obsessed with numbers so yes to numberjacks
