[quote=Anonymous]My 3.5 year old watches 10-20 minutes of tv on my phone while I get dressed in the mornings.  She likes Give a Mouse a Cookie, Dora, Daniel Tiger and other “story-based” slow-moving shows.  She doesn’t like Sesame Street because there aren’t consistent stories—e.g. she will get into a little story with big bird, and all of the sudden it switches to a cartoon about something else.  She will come find me and say “I want the bird back!  It switched to a new show!”

Anyway, I’m wondering if there are other shows that focus on numbers and letters like Sesame Street, but are more of a “story” with a little plot as opposed to the short vignettes of Sesame Street. I figure that if I’m going to let her watch a show in the mornings, she might as well get some time reinforcing letters and numbers (she enjoys being about to recognize letters in books, but only knows about half of them so far).  She rejects things that are “scary,” or “too fast.”

Anyway, if your kids have favorite shows that have some focus on letters, let me know the name of the show (and where you can stream it!)

Thanks so much!!![/quote]
