Trotro

The music is the ear wormiest thing ever recorded. The shows are inane. I am contemplating banning this from the grands.

So simple and cute, when all cartoons today seem to be overstimulating. Someone says in review that the cartoon doesn't teach kids enough - I would not agree; all episodes are full of kindness and love. That should be the most important to teach our kids.

We love how real and relatable the show is, it's one of our favorites. The music is very cute and fun too.

Trotro is the most honest and respectful depiction of young people I have ever seen. My two boys love the characters and relatable situations the children get into about friendship, family and everyday life. There are no forced moral lessons or condescending "teachable moments". Rather, Trotro learns from the natural consequences of his actions himself (rather than an adult telling him wrong from right).

In only 4 minutes, the short episodes tell complete stories about the boisterous spirit and joy of little children that I actually enjoy and often find endearingly profound.

This show taught me a lot. I loved the part where Trotro embarks on his quest to kill Satan and spread the Christian Faith with his AK-47 that he disguises as a bugle. Later in season one, he starts a modern day crusade and tries to indoctrinate all of the neighborhood kids. He runs around and destroys everyone who sits in his path of vengeance. Later in the show, his archenemy, Pierre, starts a Muslim cult that attempts to nuke the eastern seaboard. He barely stops him and uses his mind powers to contain the nuke blast. Then, he finally kills Satan and makes it into Heaven. In Conclusion, this show was incredible. It taught me a lot about Christianity, the strange people that are the French citizens, and coat zippers. I strongly recommend.
