What modern children's TV programmes should I watch?

[SingaSong12]

I was very sad to hear about the death of Brian Cant as I have fond memories of watching play school as a child.

I don't have children and don't know anything about children's tv now because of the separate channels.

For those of you that get to watch a lot of it which one show aimed at young children and one at older would you recommend I look at, probably on catch up? Should it be tv/catch-up or are there original showd just online now?

Class dismissed, strange hill high and horrible histories are the favourites in this house.

Can't help with younger children but my 10 year old likes The Amazing world of Gumball and I actually like watching it with him so I recommend giving it a go.

Should say aimed at 5+ and not really play school, but funny.

My DC are 4 and 2, and from my experiences so far I'd recommend Hey Duggee, Do You Know? and the Go Jetters. Swashbuckle is good too, if you want something more presenter/game based. All on CBeebies.

Horrible Histories on CBBC is really good too, I don't get to watch it though because mine are still too small.

Something Special, Octonauts and Hey Duggee for little children.
Horrible Histories is peerless for 8+
Strange Hill High is a favourite as is The Dumping Ground.

Ben and Holly (aimed at younger children) is very funny.

Octonauts are shite. Ben and Holly unwatchable. Peppa Pig - just makes me want honey roast ham with a bacon sandwich chaser.

Gumball.

Stay away from Paw Patrol

Sarah and duck!

Octonauts, Horrible Histories, Strange Hill High, Gravity Falls.

I love Ben and Holly!

Octonauts is educational I tell you!

We are big Hey Duggee fans in this house (5.5 & 22 months DS')

Hey! duggee

Masha and the bear

Do you know? (have actually learned the odd thing from that, like how plastic is treated and recycled)

Abney and Teal (just because the animation is pretty)

Rastamouse

Show me show me on CBeebies is lovely - very old fashioned, just two presenters doing pretend play with lots of rhymes and songs. My 18 month old adores it. It reminds me a lot of children's tv when I was little.
Hey duggee is just brilliant and full of in-jokes, love it

Also adventure time

Oh how could I forget do you know! My ds is a bit young for it but I love it (and now know how crayons and bicycles are made,
Among other things )

Sarah and duck is trippy and delightful when you're nursing a light hangover and need to entertain a toddler

Amazing World of Gumball, and Adventure Time are my favourites.

Operation Ouch is brill, I've learnt so much from it! It's on CBBC.

gumball is brilliant.

Adventure Time is for older kids, isn't it? And Regular Show- which my 5yo loves.

I forgot Masha and the Bear, it's hilarious and very swwet.

Smeaton no one pissed in my sugar puffs thanks, but B&H is truly shit, can't stand any of them and Nanny Plum gets on my tits. Obvs not popular point of view on MN, how dare I diss the Plum and all that

Yy dd is very keen on Operation Ouch. She's absorbed an awful lot from that.

Another vote for Sarah and Duck - surreal but gentle and fun with the voice of Roger Allam. We have recently been to the stage version which was delightful.
