mgrieve:

There is no education value or enjoyment in watching this show. It is excatly the same as the Teletubbies and is not suited for any child to watch.

 

Why did you replace franklin and little bear with this terrible show?

Please delete it from your catalogue, and have all copies of the episodes banned from the station.
Put back Franklin and Little Bear in the timeslot.

Anyone else out there agree???

 

 

I disagree.  I am all for education, my father was a teacher for 32 years, but why does everything have to be for learning.  Why can't some things just be for fun and relaxing.  My son is almost 2 and really loves in the night garden when he gets to see it.  IF your so concerned with educational value stop using TV as a way to teach your children and turn it off and teach them yourself.  Besides with the time slot that it is in most children are all ready in bed at night or aren't up in the morning.  Stop using the television as a baby sitter, because it sure seems like that is what you are doing.

my 2 1.2 year old son likes the show.  it is like an abstract painting for toddlers.  here in bc he watches it just as he is getting up from his nap.  it is a great wa to wake up as well as go  

    I also disagree. My daughter is 2 and a half and really loves the show.
She really loves it when the characters are introduced and their song is played. She will sing the song and even dance to the song doing what they do.

    I would really hate for this show to be cancelled because of inconsiderate people that only care about what they want on tv and don't care about what their children like.

    It is repeatitive which is good for the younger childrens development.  They will most likely enjoy the colours and music. It is funny in its childish way.

    Maybe they don't speak the best of english, but think of it this way, the characters are pretty much babies, is there not a narrator that speaks proper english?

    Just to say my daughter would be very upset because every day she can not wait to see Upsy Daisy and Iggle Piggle in their many adventures.

Please keep this show!

My 20 month old daughter absolutely loves it. I even time her bath time so that I can just remind her that "night garden" is about to start, and she is instantly ready to get out of bath and into her pyjamas without whining. The show also taught her to love brushing her teeth!!! She used to hate it and I had a tough time trying to brush them for her ...  than, 2 nights in row she watched the little Tombliboos brush their teeth with gigantic brushes - and fell in love with it. Now she demands her brush herself and even hands out brushes for the adults as well.

For the parents that find the show not interesting - maybe you fall in a very different age group? :D This show is targeted to people from 1 to 4 years old, not 30-40 year olds ... OF COURSE parents might find it boring or whatever. I did not understand it in the beginning either, but after seeing how much she enjoys it, now I find it cute too.

P.S. Kids like different stuff - my daughter does not care about Franklin at all, and has  very moderate interest in Little Bear ...

Man oh Man !! Why are we still talking about this? Just keep this show on!! There Is so an education side to this show! If you don't see this then you are not watching it!! You see characters brushing their teeth, you see counting, you see washing faces. And you even see how important it is to go to bed!! It is a great show. Both of my kids who are two and four love it!! Some how my four year old wakes up EVERY morning at 6:00 am to watch this show! And we hear what  all the characters were up to all day long! Sooo please, Tree House JUST LEAVE THIS SHOW ON!! Or you will have some very upset children (and parents me and my kids included) On YOUR  hands!!

  Why can there not be a show where kids can just enjoy it.  My 18 month old loves this show, it's colorful, and they move around.  Variety is good.  If you don't like the show, don't let your kids watch it

why do you have to have to wreck it for the kids who enjoy it??

Nope, I don't agree.  We are not relying on TV for our child's education are we?  Well then why not just let the kid enjoy watching a cute little goofy show with lovable characters?  The show is great...I love it, my one year one son loves it...everybody is happy.  Does every show on TV need to teach things to our kids that we already should?  Well than no complaints.  In the night garden rocks :)

I can't believe this show is still on the air

It is too much like teletubbies with all that baby talk

my son is 5 and I can tell when he is watching it as he starts talking like them. So he watches other shows.

 

NO we should not rely on TV to educate our children but the shows should help out.

The show is not aimed at 5 yo, though. It's for 1-3 yo.

totally disagree with you at first i thought it was a pointless show but it has captivated my 16 month old in a way no other show has. It is obviously directed to the younger children as my 3 yr old dosnt have much time for it but there is nothing wrong overall with the show it is not teaching your children anything wrong treehouse is the best channel as I never feel I have to supervise my children while watching it. There are far worse things out there in our world then to worry about a silly show!
