CBeebies

My husband and i recently purchased a 37 inch lcd tv. My husband was agog with excitement, yet since it has been home the main thing that has been on is Cbeebies! My daughter first discovered the 'joys' of tv with this channel when she was around 6 months old-i used to let her watch the odd program when i wanted to get things done round the house. Since the birth of my second and third child, it seems that the tv is eternally stuck on the channel 702 (on virgin tv). Its terrible really, as my eldest started playschool last week, so i thought that it would give me a chance to watch something else on tv-i didnt count on my middle child whinging at me ...  Read the complete review

When I first had my children, I, probably like many other parents, thought that I would hardly let them watch television at all. But then reality struck, and I realised that there are certain times of the day that a little television is actually quite a good thing, especially if I am to get anything done around the house and retain a little sanity as well.

Sometimes my daughters choose to watch a DVD at this time instead, but I generally can guarantee that if we switch Cbeebies (a digital channel which cn be found on Freeview 71) on there ...  Read the complete review

Cbeebies is a kids' TV channel that is aimed at six year olds and under. It has been around since 2002, and is a free channel. I have to say that the idea of a 24 hour TV channel of kids' TV goes against something in me. There was something important about coming home from school and watching an hour or two of TV before it went into Neighbours and then finally the news. These days, there's no need to stop, and that worries me on the level that the TV becomes the surrogate parent of kids everywhere. Anyway, this is a good channel with some brilliant content. All the BBC favs are there, and particular favourites of mine include Bob the Builder, ...  Read the complete review

I am one of those horrible mums that doesn't let her boys watch television all day and I believe more in interacting with your children rather than letting the TV educate them. However there are occasions that I call on the 'trusty' cast of the Cbeebies channel to entertain and educate my boys for half an hour whilst I prepare the tea. The Cbeebies channel is aimed at children up to the age of four years old and plays a range of programmes that are applicable to that age range. There are cartoons, educational programmes and activity based shows that encourage the watcher to participate. The channel runs continuously throughout the day but there are ...  Read the complete review
