For you Mommies and Daddies these are my young kid friendly TV recommendations that you yourself may even enjoy. They all have the Gabby stamp of approval. She actually asks for these " 'toons" her self every morning before school. They all come from TLC (The Learning Channel).
1.) Hi-5 It's funny, it's cute and it teaches!! And it has way more substance then that silly Wiggles show that seems to be ever so popular with Gabby's age group.
2.) Peep and the Big Wide World This one is so much fun that Alex and I sing along with the intro song. It teaches basic science concepts with Peep a chicken who lives in a tin can, Chirp a robin who dreams of one day flying and Quack, a "the world revolves around me 'cause I'm a duck" duck. Very cute, very funny. Joan Cusack narrates the stories. Eeek. I had to go find the lyrics!
Lyrics:
Well, it's a sunny day
I feel brand new There's about a million things That I could do! Whoa-oh-oh Would you like to Do them, too? Yeah Well, it's a big wide world And it's waiting for me and you!
Let's look around What will we see? Round every corner a discovery! Whoa-oh-oh There's no place I'd rather be! Oh, Yeah Well, it's a big wide world And it's waiting for me and you!
Sadly, I'm singing it in my head to myself right now.
And in between the shows are shorts from readysetlearn.com with Paz the penguin and his mom Big penguin. I just felt like sharing. |
WOW. Thats... WOW. You're a special one you know?
Gabby should be watching Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life like we did... I did. And I turned out fine! NYAH.
