Advantages: Tells 2 stories and allows quiet time

Disadvantages: None

This program is shown in the bed time hour on cbeebies. It is about two puppets that come out at night in a childrens library when everyone has gone home.

These puppets come out and so will a presenter who changes from time to time who will talk with the puppets. They will find a item in the library to put into the story maker machine which will choose a story for the presenter to read to the viewers.

This is put on at a good time because the presenter is soft spoken and relaxes the child before bed time. It has the same effect as if you are reading them the story yourself, but because it is a bit more magical it is lovely to see the amazement on their faces.

2 stories are usually read in this program and when they are finished everyone goes back into hiding because it is morning again and will return when it is night time again.

This has been a good program for us all to sit down and watch together and have a cuddle before being taken up stairs and put down to sleep. We do still have story time in bed and the program helps them to understand about sitting down and listening which helps with concentration.

I would advise any parent to try this program which allows quiet bonding time for the parent and child after a hectic day that children never fail to provide.

Summary: Story time without reading a book
