The characters seem more interested in drawing attention to their clown outfits than they are in teaching about numbers, colors, the alphabet, manners, or anything else for that matter. There were no lessons taught and the songs were completely mindless. I found the Doodlebops boring and painful to watch. Parents may not love it, but you will love watching your kids enjoy it! Seeing my son smile, and laugh for a half hour, is the what makes Doodlebops tolerable to parents. There are definitely a lot worse things he could be into, at least the lyrics and costumes are clean. Of course in a few weeks he will probably be onto something else, but for now when given a choice, he wants to watch Doodlebops.

He has only seen the show for a week or so and already can sing along. I keep at least 2 episodes on my TIVO at all times!!! I mean, his favorite game is peek-a-boo (which is basically the "where's Mo" part of the beginning of each show, so this is right up his alley. While adults may find Doodlebops boring and repetitive, two- year olds think it is great entertainment. He only watches a few shows a day for entertainment. Television is recreational, and as a parent I don't rely on TV to teach my child. As a parent it is my job to teach him is ABCs and 123s.

Not all shows for toddlers need to be "educational". Through repetition, (a lot of repetition) he is exposed to music and very simple life concepts, like "try try again" or "being a good friend".

My 2 year old LOVES the Doodlebops!!! While he may not be learning the ABCs or 123s, it does expose him to music and rhythm. In fact they've been around since cave men days :-)ĭoodlebops may be 30% the same every episode, and not have much "book" knowledge woven in, but kids seem to love it. Gay people are here and are not hiding any more. ROFL! Have you NOT noticed that he's dressed like a clown? Now how will children pick up on his sexuality unless YOU make a big deal about it? Better get used to it. For the person who asked if we'd like our children to follow the image of a Gay person?. About telling people that Roonie isn't any good because of his sexuality. They have some really hot guys on it for all us straight women :-)And.99% of the men on Queer As Folk are straight and have been on many shows on prime-time television. The last episode will air next Sunday night. He isn't old enough to know OR care! Shame on you for pointing that out!!!! And by the way, Queer As Folk is the hottest show on show time. My Grandson loves the show, and has no idea what Gay means. They're entertaining our kids, not US! So who gives a darn if Roonie (Chad Macnamara) is gay? It won't rub off on you dears :-) And no I'm not Gay. I can't believe what I have read here? Many of you compliment these kids for doing the great job that they're doing.
