This is all those Aesop's Fables, folk stories, tales that your parents may have told you when they were trying to teach you a lesson. Nowadays while those traditions and values keep going downhill, STILLWATER has found a way to effectively teach a valuable lesson while sharing the beautiful animation in the calm setting. Music choice also compliments. It's like watching a meditation session at some points. This is everything. Keep this series alive.

If you have young kids this is one of the best shows out there. It teaches valuable lessons, not about words or math like some shows, but about life. And I imagine if I was a kid, I'd love the big fluffy panda.

If you don't have kids and are bored enough to read this review, I'd recommend watching the first half of the first episode (each made of two 15 minute episodes) to appreciate this for what it is.

Amazing animation and great voice cast! As an adult I REALLY envy how they are living. I would do anything to live under those circumstances, that alone would make me much more zen :) By chance I was having a bad day at work and the main subject intertwined with my situation. Haha got me thinking and deal with it mentally as well :)

So many kids tv shows at the moment incorporate a good guy and a bad guy. Many incorporate weapons of one kind or another. There is a lot of emphasis on action and fighting or on 'mean' behaviours. Kids emulate all of this in class; name-calling, allocating the 'bad guy' role to someone (usually ending in tears), children hitting other children etc. This can make life difficult unnecessarily difficult for educators, and unnecessarily polarising for kids.

This show is a breath of fresh air! The character of Stillwater is wise and calm, always allowing the children to form their own conclusions-the stereotypical notion of 'tell them where to look but not what to see'. The children have age-appropriate dialogue and real-world dilemmas but learn through story-telling how to resolve their troubles. No bad guy, no good guy, no weapons, no fighting. Just a wholesome show that is so aesthetically beautiful that it will have wide appeal. I'd recommend to those as young as toddlers to those in early-middle primary school. In saying that, even my adult self really enjoyed it!

Worth a watch.

I have to be honest. I have watched this show all on my own without any kids. Each episode is split into two stories. Each story features the (stunningly animated) kids and the wise teaching panda Stillwater. A kid runs into an issue, and Stillwater teaches a lesson using a tale featuring animal characters. Always a great life lesson for anyone. Absolutley love this show. Wow. Amazing.
