User Reviews

A Bright and Colorful Kids Show with Adult Appeal

I didn't realize that this show is brand-new, as my baby girl is also brand-new (two months old and we just started watching). It's a Big Big World is a wonderful peek into the lives of animals of the rainforest. The main character is a sloth, but colorful monkeys, a fish, birds, a frog, an anteater, a wise tortoise and others also make appearances. I'm partial to Snook the Sloth, a gentle, easygoing role model with a Zenlike charm. My daughter is captivated by the energetic pair of monkeys. The puppetry and animation on this show is visually appealing, with its bright colors for her and realistic details for me. Social values seem to be a common theme, such as tolerance, balance, and living as part of the "spirit of the tree". Along with Jakers!, another favorite, we'll be watching this show for a long time!
