Ignore the title, you had to be there otherwise you can deem it pointless.

I am typing this blog to talk about some of my favourite ever children's programmes. Now, most people would say that these are only suitable for children aged about nine or ten and under but to be completely honest I only really stopped watching them a couple of years ago. It's not because I don't have the mental capacity to watch daytime tv or any other ridiculous programmes that adults watch but it's because children's programmes actually contain this vital thing called happiness.

First up is... Teletubbies. Such a legendary programme, it is the peak of children's tv and the height of entertainment. Or at least it was. I watched it in the prime of my youth, when it didn't occur to me that the teletubbies were actually people dressed in costumes, or that it was weird that they lived in a hill, or that they had to be told when to go to bed by a metal pole stuck in the ground. Honestly, it is a classic. Perhaps, my most favourite episode is the one with the dancing bear and yes you know what I'm talking about.

Next is Tots Tv. I don't think I ever really understood what they did in this programme but I liked their hair and the donkey so I became an addicted and loyal fan who even had the little rucksack thing. I very much enjoyed it.

Zzzap! Possibly the coolest name ever for a children's programme and the fact that it's based on the people in a comic book makes it even more incredible. Also, I just searched it on Wikipedia and it turns out the introduction to the series was filmed in Maidstone. Claim to fame! I always liked watching the bit when Daisy dares you. What is it with children and cream pies?

Come Outside. Officially the best theme tune to a programme ever and so catchy that I still know the words. "Look up, look down, look all around. Up in the air and on the ground". Bahaha. And also I want Pippin and her aeroplane. It's spotty.

Rosie and Jim. In close competition with Come Outside for the best theme tune but oh well. I thought this was a very nice programme, probably because it was set in a boat on the river. Although Rosie and Jim would probably scare me now.

Care Bears. Don't criticize because they were good. Rainbows, clouds and bears. Enough said.

Art Attack. The first arty programme I ever watched, soon followed by SMart [such a clever name, you could almost say it was smart]. Anyway, I think I just liked the studio with the giant pencils and paint in the background.

Balamory. One of the later programmes I watched. It's just so darn happy. And it has a pink castle.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Don't even bother arguing against this one. You know it will win.

Pokemon. Gotta catch 'em all. But alas I do not think I did.

There are lots of other programmes I watched like the one with the dog on wheels with the duck but I can't really think of them at the moment and if I ever do I will be sure to type a blog in honour of them.

Ps. Don't ever watch Horrid Henry. It is the most annoying and repetitive programme in existence.
