    Hmm.. DS likes Raggs, In the night garden, play school, in the night garden, thomas, in the night garden, bob the builder, did I mention in the night garden?

    Funny thing is, he'll carry the bob dvd over to me and say something similar to bob and point to the tv, but he only wants the theme song!!!!! arghhhh... so I have to listen to the damn theme song over and over....

    Yep...I'm a Justine Clarke fan too!

    "I like to sing" is great! Great music and choreography is really fun!

    You can get the DVD/CD from your local library to check it out before buying it!

    How about Dora The Explorer. My DD's have a Dora dance thingy.
    It comes with a DVD, Dance mat, Your own Dora clothes, & Maracca's. It's noisy, but keeps them busy, coz Dora gets them up to dance with her.
    My mum got it for them. Jaz is a bit old, but Bri loves it. It cost around $40 at Big W.
    I like it coz it gets them off their butts. Or they can just sit & watch if they want. It still has all the problem solving that she usually does, but it may work better than expecting her to sit still the whole time.

    Ok is it just me or are Hi-5 annoying?? I taped it the other day for her so she could watch it when she woke up from her nap (didnt' even realise when it was on, no TV on during the day here really!) anyway, she did like it and danced and sang (babble) but far out - they are annoying! I might keep Hi-5 for when she actually asks for it rather than subjecting myself! I think Id rather hear Queen of the Roses a billion times a day!

    Mel - at the theme song - that is sooo cute!

    Might look into a more musical Dora one, she loves pictures of Dora and her Dora couch as well as music and songs right now to dance and sing to rather than listening to much talking, but likes In the night garden - go figure. I still think they are weird.
    Thanks again!

    See if you can track down some stuff by Funny George off playschool. Umm...George Spartells is his name, very entertaining! Well actually I would endorse anything with the Playschool name attached, consistently good.

    Also, IMO you can't go past The Fairies. They're a couple of mums from Adelaide!
