Max & Ruby

Both my kids like this show, but I have noticed that Ruby is kind of a brat kicking max out of the sand box so they can have a beach party and taking the markers he was playing with first. But other than that observation my kids love the show. It's a cute show and I also wondered why the parents are never there as well. When I first saw it, the way Ruby was bossing Max around, I thought that Ruby was the mom. My mom was watching it with us and said she thinks it was the sister and I was like well where are the parents? Bossy older sister and no parents, but at least it keeps my kids entertained. We always turn this show on when it's on because I want to see what one word max will say the whole show lol. It's a super cute show.

i used to think the same thing about max & ruby always being alone, where are their parents? i decided to find out for myself and read rosemary wells biography. basically, she states you never see max and ruby's parents because she wants children to try and solve their problems on their own. i think it is a great idea because children are given examples on how to solve life's daily problems. max can be annoying and ruby is usually bossy, but i really like them and my 3 year old loves max and ruby. when you compare max & ruby to some of the other cartoons on t.v., i think they are great and i am not worried about any of the contents in their shows.

The adventures are so original, the mood so relaxed and funny! In most cartoons, the funny expressions are limited to voices, but Max's face when he is about to do something wrong is so adorable! My cousin loves this show, she is capivated by it! It is one of the few children shows that is enjoyable and funny to adults. Give it a try!

My two year old loves this show, and watches episodes over and over again on the Tivo. She especially loves the Froggy Friend show.

I have only one observation, do Max and Ruby have parents? In NO show have they ever shown their parents. Just a thought.

When I was a kid, I used to read some of her books. My favorites were "Timothy Goes To School" and "Max & Ruby". After years ago, they now have a series out of those two with Timothy on PBS Kids and Max & Ruby on Nick Jr. Those were my childhood memories as I read those books at my school and at home.

It's about two bunnies of a brother and a sister with a 3-year old named Max and a 7-year old named Ruby. They go out of some of their playful times together especially when Ruby takes Max on other things like play games and toys at their home, camping out outside with her friends and do lots of things brothers and sisters can do with each other.

Even now at my older age, I found this show very cute just like how the book was supposed to be and it teaches on how brothers and sister get along with each other by playing and have fun together. If you grew up and love the book, you should watch this series. It's really fun!
