Meet our wonderful shows!

All these shows can be found on CBeebies Sports Day.

The CBeebies House Show


The CBeebies House Show is aimed at 3 - 6 yer old children. it’s either a love it or hate it, as being a great choice for kids. It teaches life lessons such as friendship and why you shouldn’t eat too much unhealthy food. 

Topsy and Tim


Topsy and Tim is a practical show that introduces both typical preschooler behaviour and solutions to everyday challenges they face. Aimed at the toddler and preschool crowd, “Topsy and Tim” are friendly and curious kids who explore the world around them in their middle class neighbourhood and recounts their first day at school, arguing with friends and dealing with siblings.  The show is organized into short segments, just the right length for a young child’s attention span. “Topsy and Tim” is a decent show for modeling good behavior.

Yo Gabba Gabba!


Yo Gabba Gabba is aimed at 3 - 6 year old children. The series uses colourful, loveable characters, with whom children can completely identify. It is lively, musical, entertaining and often confronts issues which are quite serious to children of this age.

The language spoken in Yo Gabba Gabba is more developed than some of the younger pre-school programmes. The stories are more complex, and the spoken language 'drives' them. The language in  Yo Gabba Gabba is structured to allow children to engage with, and better understand, their feelings 
and motivations. 

Yo Gabba Gabba is set in 4 realms of a land and deals with dilemmas, challenges and issues common to very young children, such as biting your friends, or not owning up. Story lines provide a non-threatening context within which such issues can be discussed and resolved simply. These characters move like real children; they laugh at the same things they do; sing the same songs; play the same games and see the world in the same way.

The characters are well developed and children are able to predict what their responses might be. The mixture of story, song and creative activity provides excellent opportunities for children to learn through play. Music plays an important part in the programme and children are encouraged to join in with songs and actions. Yo Gabba Gabba is basically Total Request Live for kids because of its rip- 
rollicking music videos. Tune in, and you'll get a who's who of indie punk rock music today, including Weezer, MGMT, Flaming Lips, Belle & Sebastian, Band of Horses, The Shins, Edward Sharp & The Magnetic Zeros, Biz Markie, The Roots, The Killers, and the Wiggles!

Me Too!


Me Too! is an entertaining Scottish drama series aimed at 4-6 year olds about the parallel lives of parents and their children in the big city.

Me Too! was originally called Pit, which was a replacement for Balamory after it got cancelled. A character named Granny Murray was created shortly after planning period, and Me Too! was the finished name.

The drama has Scottish people interact with one another and the viewer. Their children come to stay with warm-hearted child minder Granny Murray while they go to work each day, but are always thinking about each other.

Filmed and takes place in the big city of Riverseafingal, Scotland, Me Too! features great role models for kids. They will quickly learn about Riverseafingal life as well as different jobs such as bus cleaner, train waiter, and fruit market Staller.

20 minutes tell a great story. The stories can be anything; bedtime, plant life, a party. Clocks are often used to tell time. Entertaining Songs are the narrative and the show is entertaining as well as featuring makes and games which are woven into the plot.

After each episode ends, parents and kids can talk about what happened in Riverseafingal.

Tweenies

Did you learn to sing and dance with the Tweenies? If not, you’re missing out! The Tweenies are 4 pre-school puppet characters who go to playgroup, sng and dance, and hang out with 2 grown-ups Max and Judy and 2 Dogs Doodles and Izzles. Tweenies is a great choice to help 3 and 4 year olds settle down and rest while learning more about friendship. Every kid has their favourite spot on the Tweenie Clock, Song Time, Story Time — where Max reads a story, Messy Time — where we make art, News Time — where we hear news, and Surprise Time — where we get a surprise. So come on everybody, join the dance party and shake it with The Tweenies!

The Furchester Hotel


The Furchesters have strongly developed role models for kids. Parents and Pre-School Children talk about the storylines in the heart of problem solving and the power of imagination.

For the first time ever, Sesame Street characters are finally on UK Television.

The Learning Opportunity enhances social skills and parents can talk about it with their children. The series has the hotel guests in a situation so the characters try and solve it. Parents, Carers, and Teachers may also want to explain their colors with the children.

The themes are humorous and have antics from Mr. Dull. Kids usually have a favorite character, since they are different.

Baby Einstein

Baby Einstein is an early educational series of TV Videos aimed at preschoolers, focusing on a highly integrated cast of children interacting with puppets and toys, often adding classical music. It shows worldly things from a baby's perspective and each video has a different topic.

The word Baby Einstein is derived from Albert Einstein, a German physics and the programme takes a Baby approach to its format, puppets, classical music, toys, and real-life kids, which have been in baby videos for years. The puppets are in every episode, joining in with the fun. The puppets never speak or sing and sometimes all the episodes have a quiet moment. The style of the programme is inclusive and stimulating, directly addressing the viewing child, who recognizes all the bright colours and toys on screen.

CBeebies Ned

Another great animated jingle is up on bbc.co.uk/cbeebies! It's the animated "CBeebies Ned", animated by children's book illustrator James Marshall, from a song by CBeebies' Chris Jarvis.
The jingle is about a kid who can balance lots of things on his head.

And none knows better than James Marshall himself!

I was living on a pistachio farm when I did the animation for CBeebies Ned. I started working on the animation in early 2003 and while working for the animation, I thought this was a silly idea. The only thing I could balance on my head was books. I was lucky to create animation like "CBeebies Ned", I loved the song, as well as CBeebies itself.
Without further ado, CBeebies Ned - the kid who can balance things on his head!

Below the Frame

Today was awesome! Plus, whatcha think of Vicki Genfan today? Yesternight, Mr. Tumble read our Bedtime Story, called Susan Laughs (which Justin previously read) in makaton. 
Thanks, Justin, for reading our 2nd Makaton bedtime story! (Bitz and Bob's Rob Delaney read 10 in the Bed first)
Hi, my name is Andrew Ben Day. You might've seen me exploring dinosaurs or presenting the links in between shows. A Month ago was the 17th anniversary of the launch of CBeebies (yesterday was NBeebies' sixteenth and a half), only one presenter was here for that.
Sid
You might've seen the Rad new trailer for the Channel 5 crossover with CBeebies, you all know what I'm talkin' about! The one where Sid beamed us all into the Channel 5 set because he was barfing. 

Now, I'm gonna interview Sid about how he became a presenter (he was one of the founders).

I was one of the producers of the early days of Broom Cupboard (I was 18 when it started). In 1994, I met with one of the Broom Cupboard presenters, Chris Jarvis (Fully Booked, Step Inside). We talked about there being a Children's BBC spin-off network for pre-school children. Sue Monroe (Playdays, The Shiny Show) and Nicole Davis (School of Secrets, Topsy and Tim) were there as well. Later in 1999, we went to the University of Manchester and studied early childhood education. We took the Children's Television class. There, we were looking for a new presenter and after looking for many but most of them said No, the first to say Yes was Pui Fan Lee (Teletubbies). There, we also met Liam Dolan from CBBC. As teachers, we wanted a network that would both educate and entertain children while featuring CBBC pre-school programmes such as Teletubbies and Tweenies, so we signed a deal with Ragdoll Productions (Teletubbies, In the Night Garden, Twirlywoos) and Tell-Tale Productions (Tweenies, Boo!, Fun Song Factory). After both companies said so, we launched the network on February 11th, 2002 with help from small loans of family and friends. We became so successful that we quit teaching. 
We're asking Sid what it was like to work with Chris, Pui, Sue, and Nicole. All he said was "Fuhgetaboutit"!

Meanwhile, Warrick is showing us how to operate Oucho and Dodge.

The Presenter and Crew Lounge Band is closing with a performance of the Something Special Hello song.

Happy 16th and a half birthday to NBeebies!!!

In honor of the most beloved and most watched children’s channel in the US, you are invited to do something silly.

I sent this link to Cerrie Burnell. She's also an NBeebies presenter. She replied with this photo.Yaaay Cerrie!

A Day in CBeebies Studios by Damon Dahl

Cat, Evan,Brayden, Aimee,Jackie,Logan A. and  Isaac did just that to help Jack decode English and the others learned Hawaiian at the same time. (Alex Winters Guest posts This Narrative)
Friday January 18th, 5:45 A.M, at Media City Uk, Salford MA
Chapter  11: Recruiting Jack and Brayden
Andy Day,Cat Sandion,Sidney Sloane,Ben Cajee,Rebecca Keatley,Evan and Brayden Strong,Jackie Davis,Logan Marshall,Angel Gibbs,Aimee Campbell,Aspen and Sierra Clark,Isaac and Logan Acevedo,and Sierra and Hallee Fernley.


The morning bell rang, it was time to start filming but... first time for breakfast. Rebecca made breakfast, and she made waffles and scrambled eggs. Two New CBeebies Presenters were joining the lineup presenter crew. Brayden (Evan’s Brother) and Jack Gardener.


There I let Evan and Brayden sit by me. Then I pulled out a sheet of paper from my backpack and drew a little arrow pointing to me and wrote “Alex” and then passed it over to him. Then, he wrote “ Jack”. I could tell how he was foreign because he whispered in Hawaiian to himself. I asked “Loaʻa iāʻoe, a, aiʻole e like me nā mea puaʻa?” Jack chirped  “Loaʻa iā mākou kahi hamster inoaʻo Geo, akā, ua makeʻo ia, no laila ua loaʻa iā mākou he inoa houʻo Emerald” I understood that maybe he could help me on my Furry Friends Hour along with Angel. Then, I continued to eat my waffles.
14 Mins Later...All The Kid Presenters, Cat, Andy, and Ben went outside and upstairs to the CBeebies House to film for Get Set Go. The Kiddos were planning to do a play called “Friendship Tales” which was based on how everyone had their friendships and they wanted to show New Coming  Kid Presenters how to get along. That was gonna happen at the Lunch Time (Block). Back at the Table , Sid, Rebecca, Cerrie ,and I were eating still and I was getting ready too head to my Filming Room and chat with My New Foreign Friends.
Chapter 12: Alex’s Furry Friends Hour
I told Jack and Brayden to follow me to my yellow room.


As we passed by, we saw a part of Jackie and Cat’s shadows and we crawled by like soldiers. Not even the cameras saw us crawling by. I silently opened up my room door and closed it back. Outside, Cat, Evan, Jackie, and Logan were linking (Announcing) Songtime’s episode “Find”.  CBeebies made sure that every show was in High Definition Quality (HDQ). I really wanted to see Songtime’s Episode “Find” so I turned on the tv and played it a little bit quietly so that way the microphones won’t detect the loudness. I them asked about Emerald and then they unzipped their backpack and handed me his cage. Emerald was sleeping so I gave him a gentle stroke on his back and then he woke up. I could tell how my new friends liked Emerald because they were entertained by him running on his wheel. Emerald walked around and then flopped on his back. I supposed that he wanted some food because all hamsters lie on their bellies so that represented they were hungry I think ?.

Jack threw a slice of carrots in his cage and before they even hit the ground he nosedived straight for it. All Hamsters Love 💕 Carrots. He gnawed on it and then Jack threw some apple slices at the cage and Emerald nosedived for the apples again. I looked up at the TV and saw Chloe and Toby Tyler riding their Toy Train as the song “Peek A Boo” was about to begin. 
“Manaʻo wau he makemake nuiʻo Emerald,ʻoʻoe, a me i koʻu “"Furry Friends"” Hour.” I whispered.
“Pono mākou makemake, he mea nui loa ia.” whispered Jack
I understood that they wanted to be there but they didn’t know how to speak English. I was talking about Emerald and how he should be the mascot for My Furry Friends Hour. He agreed but didn’t want that to happen at the same time.
Chapter 13: Invention Galore
Cat and her Singalong Hour Crew came inside and then I pulled Jackie and Evan off the couch into the secret room and I explained how can we help Jack decode and understand English. Jackie said that they can use a sheet of paper or use something like the morse code like those spies did back in the day. Evan said that we should be more creative and not plagiarize or paraphrase someone’s hard work. So, He Said “We Should Make A Little Poster  with pictures of flowers in it to help decode.” We all agreed and then went outside and then directed everyone to Cat’s Room so that way we could talk about our plan. The Boys and I wrote some fancy letters in Feathered Pens and The Girls used Cat’s laptop to find photos of flowers. The Letters That The Boys and I wrote Looked Like This... A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z . They Looked Really Decodable. We watched and helped the girls cut and glue the flower photos on.
10 Mins Later… It looked so pulchritudinous that we cheered in playfulness “OOOOOOOOOOH & AAAAAAAAAH” and then we carried it into my Room Hour Room.

Chapter 14: Studying Hour
We all had a limited amount of time to teach them English because Aspen and Sierra Clark (Our CBeebies Presenters Sisters) were appearing ,Trevor was gonna narrate Storytime,Devon and Damon were gonna ride their Robots,Rex was gonna showcase his personal in-between segment,Aspen and Sierra were gonna play Flying Animals,and THE REMIX WAS GONNA PLAY!!!!! We Sputtered,Stuttered,Dribbled,Faltered,and Stumbled our words until Jack said…
Hi I’m Jack Andrew Gardner My Birthday is on  March 26th,2008 and I am 10 and ¾ years old. Who are you guys?

Aimee,Isaac,and Logan were the first to have their breaths taken away and then Jackie, Cat, Evan, and I were next to have our breaths taken away and then we all got them back and just like that Andy punched the clock and said to all 3 of the boys… “Welcome To CBeebies” with beaming gasconade did them all in a good way. And everyone cheered silently and went outside to throw the party for the new CBeebies Jr. Presenters.

THE END OF THIS EXCERPT!!!

Slate - "Sorry Arthur and Sesame Street"

Enough with the plaudits on PBS Kids, the best pre-school programming on TV is BBC's CBeebies!
By Alyssa, Sydney and Damon King, Slate Magazine
If you have a young child or maybe if you are, you currently know PBS Kids is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. The fact that PBS Kids, still charming and useful at times, is no longer the most engaging kids' TV network. that distinction now belongs to BBC's CBeebies!

Currently under a rebrand which began on Christmas, CBeebies has garnered critical acclaim and quickly established itself as the most beloved and most watched children's channel in the UK (according to Nielsen, the channel itself has more than 500,000 viewers at home). Like PBS Kids, CBeebies offers a range of educational programmes that teach skills such as problem solving, science, math, literacy, and social skills. But the similarities end here!

CBeebies is hip, edgy, and current! It's the TV network for pre-school children whose parents aren't ready for going into their rock, pop, and hip-hop days! It has bands performing their own tracks such as the Roots, Rising Stars, and Barefoot Bluegrass. Its daily "Dancey Dance" segment is hosted by celebrity guest stars such as James Corden, Demi Lovato, and Matthew Perry. So successful that hipster adults without children watch the channel since its launch in February 2002.

We first came across CBeebies looking for a break from Sesame Street, Arthur, Clifford, and Cyberchase. CBeebies' hipster bona fides have drawn considerable attention and have grown to its popularity. Plus, our older sister Juliet doesn't know the Rising Stars from a hole in the ground until watching the channel.

At the center of CBeebies is a black presenter, a brown curly-haired presenter, a black haired presenter of Hi5 fame, a brown haired presenter of Wiggles fame, a brown haired Crickets presenter and two fanciful presenters - one who has her arm cut short and the other welsh. Each day is a nonstop extravaganza of great shows and characters.

Watching PBS Kids, by contrast is a depressing, dull activity. Watching PBS Kids left us bored and uninterested.

CBeebies' blocks include Get Set Go (6:00am-9:00am), Discover + Do (9:00am-3:00pm), Big Fun Time (3:00pm-6:00pm), and Bedtime Hour (6:00pm-7:00pm).

CBeebies has musical performances by Bluegrass bands such as Fun., who performed We Are Young with Janelle Monae.  We Are Young's violent scenes were replaced by the group flying on squares singing the song.  Fun. sings a song that teens may be ready for. CBeebies is groundbreaking in both hip-hop in television.

So while you won't be learning social skills with a talking tiger or curiosity with a michevious monkey, from CBeebies, it's the best thing going on children's television according to money. There will be time for literacy, math, and science down the road along with various math and science activities. For now, it's children's TV with a hip-hop beat!

Pilot (P1)

Hello, I'm Catherine Anna Sandion! And Welcome to MediaCityUK Salford, Manchester.

This is the Filming location. The Set is actually through this door!

The Lobby. The receptionist is out, he's currently playing dress up through the magic curtain and presenting in the CBeebies House right now!
This is where we record our songs. Sorry, we'll come back when the receptionist is in!
This is the makeup room, where they make us presenters look great!
You'll really want to see this!
Alex. He's one of the presenters on CBeebies! Since he's welsh, we can't understand what he's saying!
Today, we were given lollipops. When we're not on set and the Idents, promos and shows are on, we eat candy!
On right now? Songtime episode Greetings. First Sierra and Aspen (our sister presenters) appeared, Trevor Bonfire narrated story time, Damon rode his banana, Andrew colored, Delaney played Pointy, and the Megamix played.
Also, we have CBeebies T-shirts and Hats. Sorry kids, these are for the Presenters and crew only!
These are the first four CBeebies presenters. Sue, Chris, Pui, and Sid. And of course...
An Old VHS we have of Baby Mozart. We keep it here because we love Baby Einstein (Aspen and Sierra's mom made the show).

Baby Einstein is an educational entertainment and toy company based in Atlanta, Georgia. Baby Einstein designs, develops, and markets learning toys and related content for the education of babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers. The company was founded by Julie Aigner-Clark II in 1996. Baby Einstein is owned by Kids II in the US, Disney in Canada, BBC in the UK, and independent in AU.
We have scripts of continuity segments from 2002 to 2005 and a prop Andy designed for Sue's Make and Do Hour.
That's Evan, he's one of the CBeebies presenters!~
Evan just told me "You're never too old to love CBeebies!" Attention everyone, CBeebies is now hipster approved!
Andy had to film some continuity, so he left me his lollipop. Evan A. and Isaac had to go too to film their personal in-between segment.
Now for a lesser known fact, I was on Hi5 UK from 2008 to 2011. I'm the girl in the blue tank top with the black hair. I have a T-shirt explaining "I was on Hi-5"
That's Andy's hoodie! But now I have to go to the studio! Bye!
