In the last couple of years, my 9-10 year old DD has loved Just Add Magic and the Avatar - Last Airbender. She also liked the babysitter's club series you are talking about and Anne with an E. It's old, but she also really liked Brainchild.

She loves Cooking and Baking shows (British Bake Off Jr., Bake Squad, Nailed It, Is it Cake...). She liked Lego Masters a lot.

She's outgrown the PBS shows (although she secretly enjoys Bluey when her 4 year old sister is watching it .

My 8 year old told me she is getting to old for WildKratts, but they love this show, and I am hoping there is something similar that they might be interested in.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!


Yeah calm down and realize your kids didn’t even care about that part of the show bc it was adults talking too much and have no idea it has any deep meaning.

But since you are so worried about something so incredibly benign stick with old sitcoms - The Brady Bunch, Bewitched, Leave it to Beaver. - of but just know the adults kiss in those shows so that might be too racy

They are currently into Wild Kratts, Rainbow High and Babysitters club.

They started watching babysitter's club recently, and I am not sure that it is appropriate.There is this episode where one of the girls called a divorce mother disorganized, and the mother was telling one of the girls how she gave up so much for her ex husband. Is this appropriate content?
