      Oof I have a hard time with Miss Rachel … those songs drive me nuts. Mercifully my child agrees with me so far.

      Agreed that Bluey is fricking awesome.

      Oh man, our 2.5 year old has recently gotten very into Ms. Rachel and it’s so lovely. We get to do all the songs with her off screen as well. In the same vein I’d recommend any new parents to check to see if their local Library has any baby rhyme time or story time like ours. They also upload lots of those online too for free which is great!

      Most kids TV is just mindless repetitive garbage. Bluey is actually just genuinely, good, well-written TV. I’ve heard people say that it’s not really a kid’s show that parents like to watch, it’s a parent show that kids also like to watch.

      I haven’t watched it much, but my wife really likes it. My advice is simply to avoid Caillou, unless you want your kids to be bratty, whiny, and possibly bald.

      Mostly it’s very well written. Funny, sweet, educational for both kids and parents. The humor isn’t tacked on to keep kids’ attention; it’s woven into the story and lesson of each episode. Bluey is one of the few shows I enjoy watching with my kids, and it’s by far my favorite.

      Our kid is 2 1/2 and the best advice I can give (if you live in the US) is to download the PBS kids app. As you can imagine I’m concerned what shows my kid is exposed to and the stuff on PBS kids is great. Some of the stuff like Arthur seems to be targeted at kids a little older but shows like Daniel Tiger and Sesame Street are great. It’s really awesome watching your kid sing along to some of the tunes. I’ve basically come to the conclusion that as long as it’s on the PBS kids app that it’s good to go.

      Other shows I’ve shown him off the app are the OG Thomas the Tank episodes and Peppa Pig, both of which I love too.

      I don’t know anything about Bluey but it seems to be pretty popular with parents so I’m sure that’s a good choice too.

  • Bluey is amazing, warm, funny, clever, just perfect. Any kids show that can tell the story of human evolutionin, while using it as a metaphor for children growing up is pretty special. (I think that episode is called Flat Pack) And also, if you can access iPlayer (BBC), Hey Duggie is brilliant, silly, funny, great design and sweet. Also Puffin Rock (Netflix) is like a warm, gentle blanket - but sneaks in educational nature content, as does Octonaughts (iPlayer / Netflix), which is also excellent.

    I think it’s actually only season 3C 😭

    Which is fantastic and has great episodes but is still missing about 10 episodes from the Australian content. But I’m still psyched!!
