Everyday, after they've washed and had breakfast, they fly through space on their living room sofa-visiting the planets, and helping out the inhabitants in one way or another. But, although the crew behind this computer-animation cartoon seem to make a very good effort at putting together something very special, the result is-in a word- monotony.) Here is the premise: Bing and Bong are two furry white aliens who live on a planet together. (In fact, "Tiny Planets" could not possibly be more colorful than it is. This is, undeniably, a very colorful cartoon. All in all I highly recommend "Tiny Planets" for kids of all ages! But the first time she was telling her grandparents about the flockers they were in shock for a moment or two. However, we just worked with her on her diction and eventually she got it very clearly. And I can tolerate watching this show with her much better than many other ones that kids like to watch! The only problem I have with the show is that the creatures that are native to the tiny planets are called "Flockers," and when a two-year old tries to say that, it can come out pretty shockingly (like a very nasty curse word). However, my two-year-old daughter loves the show and actually tells other people what she has learned from it. It is computer-animation and it does stretch reality in the presentation as well as the story lines.
While there are some "ludicrous" parts of the show (as another reviewer pointed out), it is a kid's show and not meant to be presented as reality (first clue: they are little aliens in outer space flying around on a spring-controlled couch). Examples of the lessons consist of story lines that detail changing of the seasons, how a rainbow is formed, how sound waves travel or even the importance of following a recipe (or formula) precisely to get to a desired outcome. Most of them hit you over the head with it, but "Tiny Planets" takes a fresh approach of having two friendly little aliens solving problems in every episode by learning about science. I also like the fact that this show addresses scientific principles, though simply, better than other children's shows that I have seen. I think it does a nice job as the music is very upbeat and techno, and unlike in so many other children's shows, it is easily tolerable and even enjoyable by the adults. Their journey on a furry white sofa attached to their home planet by a length of elastic, meeting many unusual friends and figuring out all kinds of important stuff along the way ? before they twang back home to bed and a well-deserved night?s sleep.This kid's show is geared toward stimulating the senses while teaching very basic scientific principles to young children. They are best friends and set out each day on a new adventure across their tiny universe to one of their special planets of discovery.
