Over the years we’ve seen a transition from “In the Night Garden” , to “Charlie & Lola” and “Peppa Pig” each holding the title of Maddie’s favourite TV program. She has avidly watched each episode many times over. Top of the current popularity charts are Lazy Town and Mickey Mouse’s playhouse. Some of these are more watchable than others from an adults point of view although I have been quite impressed at the “hidden” messages in them. Charlie & Lola in particular seems to cover off lots of toddler issues really well and whilst Lazy Town means well with it’s “sports candy” (fruit to you and I) I’m not so sure it’s that good. One thing for sure though it is a huge phenomenon with spin off toys, dressing up outfits and today we found ourselves watching the live show with hundreds of excited children and even more slightly bored adults. Needless to say Maddie loved it and can’t wait to go again.
