With the exception of a couple of shows, most are either pushing social ideology's or poisoning children's minds with utter nonsense.

I LOVE CBeebies House. It's happy, interesting, brightly-colored, hip, and teaches good lessons. So far it's the only kids' show I love -- Berenstain Bears bores me, Ni-Hao Kai-Lan is a little too precious, and The Wiggles drive me to a frantic search for the remote. (I actually got into a verbal altercation recently with a 2 1/2 year-old who objected to my strong dislike of The Wiggles.) Though Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends is okay, Spiderus's jerkiness notwithstanding, nothing holds a candle to The CBeebies House Show. I wish it was on right now.

"Hello!" "Break it down!" The CBeebies House Show is a good educational show for kids, a little like three preschool shows I know (Sesame Street, Barney & Friends, and Yo Gabba Gabba!). Unlike Barney or Bear in the Big Blue House, this show has humor, celebrities, and parodies - all stuff adults can enjoy, just like Sesame Street and Yo Gabba Gabba!. Plus, like Barney and Bear (but only more so), this show consistently addresses the everyday aspects of life, such as safety, manners, sharing, different, colors, etc. That makes the CBeebies House Show much more educational than Playschool, because "Strangers are your friends" isn't among the lessons they teach. The amazing thing is how it's all done in the most entertaining way with fun songs and lots of dancing, just like Yo Gabba Gabba! -- not an easy thing to do well. For example, the Singalong episode has "Copy, Copy, Copy Me Do," a song I loved as a preschooler! The presenters are extremely talented (Andy, Cerrie, Rebecca, Ben, Cat, Sid, Alex, Sam, Nisha, Pui, Katy, Ryan, Kaitlin, and Evie). They never ever talk down to children (similar to Sesame Street, only more so). The Bedtime Story segment with the presenters is wonderful to open children's minds to contemplation -- it is so soothing. Plus, you never know where the CBeebies Clock will stop - is it Song Time, Super Music Friends Show, Dancey Dance, Telly Time, Messy Time, or Game Time?

Overall, The CBeebies House Show is a rarity, and is truly wonderful, fun, and really engaging for the kids to watch. Messy Time is first rate so colourful and convincing, Super Music Friends Show and Dancey Dance are endearing, Song Time is tuneful and fun and the stories are nice. Also, this show successfully teaches life lessons that adults will definitely appreciate. "CBeebies Clock, where's its stop?"
