Teletubbies

I used to babysit for my friends little two year old son. He was a bit hyper like all toddlers and loved running me ragged! One of his favourite cartoons was the Teletubbies so i used to put the dvd on to keep him happy and contented for a while. I used to sit and watch it with him and i felt like my head was going to explode after a few episodes, its so unbelievabley repetitive and mind numbingly boring! Children like repetition so i see how they would like it especially with all the bright colours and some of the cute characters. If you have never heard of the Teletubbies, it is a BBC childrens tv series and has ...  Read the complete review

I'll be the first to admit that children's TV has always been a bit weird. Take the cherished childhood memories of the previous generation, who were brought up watching a psychedelic stop motion roundabout ride, a bunch of whistling space rodents, and the immortal Mr Noseybonk, a character who seems only a few tenuous steps away from committing mass murder. But that was nothing, and I mean nothing, compared to the surrealistic abominations our generation has been raised on. The Teletubbies is set in a livid and slightly creepy world, dominated by rolling green hills and four giggling biomechanical nightmares with insipid names, communicating with an ...  Read the complete review

Every morning when my baby wakes me up (at 06:30 grrr ...no lie in's for me), we toddle downstairs where he loves to sit and watch the Teletubbies whilst having his breakfast. The Teletubbies are Tinky Winky, Dipsy, La La and Po. They are round, soft, colorful childlike characters with a telly on their tummies, who live in Tellytubby land - a lovely place with green hills and bunnies roaming around. Each show is 30 minutes long - a little long to keep a baby's attention for the whole time - and at the moment they show on channel two or CBeebies - usually early in the morning. Most of the show is about the Teletubbies, and you will hear them ...  Read the complete review

My grandkids love to watch CBeebies and most of the time I do not mind them watching a bit of TV but when it comes to the Teletubbies I am none too keen. The reason I do not mind them watching a bit of TV is that most of the CBeebies shows have a fair bit of educational value to them but the Teletubbies has none. The show is all bright colours and I have to admit there is one part of the show when they look into the TV and watch a clip that is educational but the language used by the Tubbies is all babyish language obviously aimed at a child's level but it encourages the child to copy this made up baby language rather than to develop their ...  Read the complete review

Teletubbies With three children under 5 I have seen many children's programs in my time and I am sure I have many more to endure. I have to say teletubbies is not one of my favour programs to sit down and watch with my children. If I had to bit I would watch some thing like me too or some thing special. But saying teletubbies is a good program for my children to watch by them self's why I get some jobs done (bad parent ) Teltubies is aimed at pre-school children (my children personally only really like this from 18 to 36 months). The show started in 1997 and is still shown today even they stopped producing it in 2001, meaning the shows ...  Read the complete review
