Heidi

Started watching this with my 4 year old daughter, and we both love it. Beautifully written and animated. Only real real shame is the change of character voices on season two! Spoils it completely.

I can not fault this show. It's a beautiful story that adults can enjoy too. It's a nice change from the over-the-top shows that are on TV for kids these days. It teaches values and kindness and also encourages adventure and curiosity. It has a nice, calming quality that is great for just before naps too.

Having three young children I spend lots of time watching cartoons. Generally I find them unintelligible and often drift off, thinking about work or the weekend or whatever.

Not Heidi. I find this show captivating and well written. Heidi is a cute little orphan who is sent into the Alps to live with her Grandfather, a recluse man who casts a weary eye on his new arrival. However, as Heidi's character grows into the season, it's hard not to love her, and her Grandfather loves her most of all. Then there's Peter, the young goat herder who befriends Heidi. He's a little boy, and not unlike other boys he quests adventure and exploration. Many of the episodes revolve around Heidi and Peter learning something new or challenging each others' wits. Later on, Clara joins in from "the city" (Frankfurt) and along with her Governess, we have a show with character depth and charm.

Most of all, Heidi portrays a sweet girl living in idyllic Switzerland and promotes kindness, curiosity, and a sweet virtue that is missing in so many other children's programming today. In our modern age, Heidi fits the bill for wholesome viewing. I am hoping for a season 2!

My little girl is never tired of this show. It's the most feel good show we've found. We always go back to it. It's a little emotional at parts and we love it. I got sucked into the story after watching one episode with my daughter and that's rare when it comes to children programming. I had no idea Heidi story has been told before. We absolutely love it and recommend to anyone. Props to the creators and everyone involved, it's a beautiful show, I'd give an award if a was in a position to. Heidi is a great character, unlike in other cartoons she's not a character who always makes the right choice, she makes mistakes sometimes but always follows her heart and that's how kids can relate to her.

I grown up watching Disneys cartoons in th 90s. I live in India, now most cartoons shown here are created in India which are too bad. My brothers daughter is 5 years old even she is not interested in idiotic indian cartoons. Thanks to kochu TV to telecast this cartoon. Its is telecasted as lily in malayalam. She watches it every day. Even I watch this cartoon.
