The Doodlebops

At first I didn't like the Doodlebops, but after watching a few times I am started to like it. My kids are getting something out of it. They have some good messages in the show. IE. not being scared of the dark, getting along, etc. It's nice and upbeat and moves along quickly. I think it will catch on. SOmeone said that it didn't have originality and took some things from Captain Kangaroo and other shows, but I don't think that's relevant as my kids and I am sure most out there have not seen or even heard of those shows. I say, if it works, it works. I hope you give it a fair shot like I did, I think it will catch on. I think it's a good way to start our day off and get moving.

I watch my granddaughter M - F all day long. She's 2 years old and she LOVES this show. Its on twice a day but we also have recorded a few shows. She'll get tired of playing and comes up to me and asks for doodle bops. She loves Moe and almost every song they sing she tries to dance along with them. She loves when Bus driver Bob shows up and the song they sing on the bus. And she loves the "where's Moe" segment at the beginning of each show. Its a wonderful show and I'm so happy I can share this with my granddaughter. My friends granddaughter is also 2 and she loves the show. We think its great and can't wait until they tour the US. We'll all be there!

I have a son that's almost three, and he loves anything that has singing in it. The difference between most kids shows and The Doodlebops is that these folks can actually carry a tune! This, of course, isn't the only plus for the show. The characters of DeeDee, Rooney, and Moe are very easy for preschoolers to relate to. They play, laugh, and have fun...but they argue occasionally, too. They always manage to make up, though...teaching kids that it's OK to disagree or even "fight" with your friends as long as you know when to apologize. The Doodlebops are bright and colorful, and the show is fast-paced. I definitely recommend this for anyone that has kids in the 3-7 range. Four stars!

Doodlebops may be 30% the same every episode, and not have much "book" knowledge woven in, but kids seem to love it. My 2 year old LOVES the Doodlebops!!! While he may not be learning the ABCs or 123s, it does expose him to music and rhythm. Through repetition, (a lot of repetition) he is exposed to music and very simple life concepts, like "try try again" or "being a good friend". Not all shows for toddlers need to be "educational" . As a parent it is my job to teach him is ABCs and 123s. Television is recreational, and as a parent I don't rely on TV to teach my child. He only watches a few shows a day for entertainment. While adults may find Doodlebops boring and repetitive, two- year olds think it is great entertainment. I keep at least 2 episodes on my TIVO at all times!!! I mean, his favorite game is peek-a-boo (which is basically the "where's Mo" part of the beginning of each show, so this is right up his alley. He has only seen the show for a week or so and already can sing along. Of course in a few weeks he will probably be onto something else, but for now when given a choice, he wants to watch Doodlebops. There are definitely a lot worse things he could be into, at least the lyrics and costumes are clean. Seeing my son smile, and laugh for a half hour, is the what makes Doodlebops tolerable to parents. Parents may not love it, but you will love watching your kids enjoy it!

I have four children ranging in ages of 2-6. Everyday since the show has aired,my children wait patiently for the Doodlebops to come on. They have been hooked since the first show. I have looked high and low for pictures of them with and without make up. Any suggestions?? Thank you for providing my children with great entertainment. I would also like for my children to see them in concert sometime. We give the Doodlebops 10 Thumbs up!!! I sure hope that Playhouse Disney keeps the show on the air for years to come. I have watched all different kinds of children's programming and Playhouse Disney has once again added an asset to their list. Great job Canada, Cookie Jar Entertainment and Disney television for bringing children a show with excitement and music to stimulate their imagination.
