Marisa is mad about the Tweenies. She got it as a gift for her 1st birthday present, it started with one song which she remembered about monsters, so she'd want me to put "Monster Monster" on, again and again and again, the one song!!! But it seems like her taste is expanding to more Tweenies songs! I am so glad she's finally appreciating TV lol - never would sit still for five minutes and appreciate it!
What show / dvd is your toddler into watching?
Well Kameron loves Humphrey. But that comes and goes like the wind on Channel 9.
Now that we have a digital set top box and a new TV we can finally get channel 2 perfectly so he watches the kids shows in the morning, but doesn't really prefer one over the other. He will sit still for Hi 5 during the arvo which is good gives me a chance for a quick tidy up before coming home.
He has Elmo's World Top to Toe video that I get bored off very quickly. That is the only kids video we have. We brought him Shrek but he gets a bit scared sometimes specially the dragon in it. He doesn't like dragons.

Hailey loves the Wiggles and Playschool DVD that she has!

Hi -
Caitlin is 2.3 and likes the simpsons. Every day I get 'watch homer tape'. To which I reply 'no dear, homer is having a rest today'. I work three nights a week and i think thats all she and the OH do together. Sit on the couch in their undies and watch homer tape.
And saying hello to EVERYONE at the shops - hello chemist lady, hello fruit shop lady, hello deli lady ... and she loves pretend shopping at home, with her purse and money and basket of plastic fruit and vegies. Its like mini me !

*hugs*

Well Kameron is now a Bob freak. Should have seen his face light up when Bob the builder came onto channel 2 last week. It hadn't been on for a while. He has a Bob chair, t'shirt, bob thingo on his door, a bob mug and egg cup and if you say "where is Bob" he runs around pointing to it all.
He is also warming to Hi 5 something he didn't really like. Has now taken to dancing with Charlie, and even said Hi 5 for the 1st time the other day.
Love :smt049
hi - i see that your daughter was born on the 23.11.01. Caitlin was due on the 20.11 - induced on 3.12.01. So, not two years old and not quite two and a half.
I am loving this age so much, just watching her experiece things, happy and sad, i get as excited as she does.
Barb.
love the camera, wish i knew how to use it properly ....
Hi again Barb, as part of the BB guidelines it requests that we don't put images in our posts, you can check out our guidelines here. But so that our members can still show off their beautiful families, Kelly has setup a gallery that is part of the main website, you can access the gallery here.
I checked out your photo, she's an absolute doll! If you click on the www button at the bottom of my post, you can see some pics of Paris!
*hugs*

Lesley
Ah yes, always good to read the instuctions before you start ... Paris looks so much older with lipstick on !
Thanks,
Barb.
Hi - we're having a run on Wiggles videos again, but now we run around the lounge doing the actions. And singing the songs from play school.
If I hear 'three little ducks' once more !!! Aksherly, its very very cute. We do great duets.
Barb.
Paris is into Harry Potter would you believe? She watched the end of the first movie on Sat night (it was on optus) and then it was on again sun morning and she wanted to watch again LOL. She LOVES the films. Pity she wasn't older or I might take her to see the 3rd one...which I soooo can't wait for ;)
Other than that she's kind of gone of TV, but she suddenly loves spiderman LOL everytime she sees anything with spiderman she has to tell me.
*hugs*

It must only take once for something to be absorbed. Caitlin has a Harry Potter doll who plays with the Barbies and the naked **** Tracey doll.
I saw the Harry Potter movie last week. It's pretty good. I took Caitlin with me when I saw the second one, she was just over one year old, too young to watch, too old to sit still.
Have you taken Paris to see a childrens movie yet ? How did she go ?
Barb.
We took her to see "cat in the hat" and she LOVED it :) And was soooo well behaved sat in her seat for the first half of the film and then on my lap for the rest. It was quite funny because if anyone made a sound she would go "shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" LOL! I have a movie nazi in the midst ;)
I plan to take her to see shrek 2 with her cousin when its out.
*hugs*
Cailin
LOL at the movie Nazi :D
I took Caitlin to see Shrek 2 on the weekend - she sat and watched the first 30mins and the last 30 mins. In the 30 mins in the middle we had four visits to the toilet and four seat changes ... aarrrgghh.
She must have taken some of it in as the next day she put on Nicks cowboy hat and told us she was the Puss in Boots. She told me I had to put on a hat and be Puss In Boots too.
It's a good film. Going to the market later today for a bootleg copy :-)
While I'm in here - whats Paris like at the shops ? Caitlin is like a bull in a china shop if shes not in the stroller or a trolley.
Barb.
*BUMP*
ATM Paige is into Pooh Bear and Elmo (or "Mo-Mo" as she calls him), she goes mad for him when he comes on TV.
Playdoh is a dirty word in this house Jillian LOL. It has been banned after they gristed a heap of it into the carpet.
Gosh 2.5 years later, Lachlan is now the bob freak LMAO. Kameron loves the Simpsons and will cry when it isn't shown on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday night.
We also don't have playdoh in this house that can stay at kindy/playgroup. The kids were giving a playdoh table for xmas last year with playdoh, but they were more inclinced to loose playdoh lids which made it all dry out and fight over the playdoh etc etc so we decided not to buy any more.
Love
Lindsay is like that too, but the less he watches of it the better because now he is starting to get the jokes.:

Jaykob is obsessed with everything "cars"
he sat still at the movies for the whole thing! hes always been a motorbike/ car boy though.
On Tv he likes play school, he likes to dance along...
Gab loves the Fairies... but just the intro song. After that she kinds of loses interest. She likes Hi-5 but is usually still asleep when it's on. I am going to tape a few episodes for her.
Our DVD player blew up a few months ago so she's been a little deprived of kiddy TV. I'm sure she'll make up for it.
We are going to look into foxtel when we move. I'm sure she'll start appreciating TV more once we have those cool kiddy channels!
Zander's favourites are Ollie & Face on Nick Jr.
He loves listening to his CDs - Play School (although he's never watched it the CD is his favourite), Hi-5 and Wiggles.
She quite enjoys the dancing in Hi5, and will stay still for the wiggles.
She LOVES playschool! I sit with her and we sing the songs and talk about whats going on. I really, really like Playschool - I dont feel like she's veging out when she watching it :)
She still loves Nanies (Bananas) and Boobah, our Boobah DVD has been watched so many times its broken!
Fairies. Fairies are BIG in our house. Along with Nemo & the Jungle Book. And Wiggles, but not to watch, just the songs in the car.
The other things are "cleaning" (ie drowning the coffee table in water from a spray gun and wiping it all up!) and "shopping" is gathering a green evironbag up and filling it with anything she comes across from around the house. And "cooking" ie filling up pots and pans with stuff and putting them in "the oven" which is one of the bathroom cupboards.
Hilarious. Messy. Chaotic, but cute and hilarious, especially as ALL these activities are accompanied by a never ending constant stream of commentary.......she NEVER shuts up....
well lani loves, elmo, pingu, pepper pig but she just adores Hi 5, typical all i have here from my other two are heaps of wiggles and bobs videos and dvd's but nope she hates the wiggles runs away saying no wiggle no wiggle - hi 5 hi 5, very cute. so we are slowly building up our collection of hi 5 dvd's lol. with toys she loves playing with my ds matchbox cars, she loves her fisher price school bus and little people, but she also plays with her dollies and loves to walk around the house with her bag, my sunglasses, my keys and her toy mobile phone. very cute age i love it
Yasin looves Dora the Explorer. He takes his Dora DVD with him everywhere just on the off chance that he will be allowed to watch it. He's also been getting into the Wiggles lately and his favourite books are his Hairy McLeary ones. He insistes on having them read to him at least 4 or 5 times a day.
