Peppa is a loveable, cheeky little piggy who lives with her little brother George, Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig. Peppa's favourite things include playing games, dressing up, days out and jumping in muddy puddles. Her adventures always end happily with loud snorts of laughter. Written by Anonymous
Evaluate for your own children, but my words of caution are at the end. I was initially surprised by the low overall rating. I don't want to be a killjoy. At my child's current age, I'm okay with limited screen time. Still, there's a reason for my low score.
The Good. The show is clever with subtle humor for the adults. It introduces other languages, teaches lessons (wear a helmet) and introduces very basic nature concepts (some animals are nocturnal), though you'll need to discuss proper dos and don'ts for spiders. The animation quality works for the target audience.
The Bad. The characters are typical for a modern sitcom: Dad is a buffoon, the butt of jokes, and gets little respect from anyone. Mom is crazy. The in-laws (mostly Grandpa) are overbearing. They all occasionally have their better moments. The little brother's squealing cry is one of the most grating sounds I have ever heard.
The Ugly. With Peppa, my child becomes a little zombie. With other videos (Sesame Street, animated songs), we sing together, act, or talk about what is happening on screen. Not so here. He stares blankly at the screen. Unlike with other videos, he often cries and fusses after it's turned off. He asks to watch it all the time. I don't know whether the addictive elements are accidental or by design to sell toys. The simple animation, repetition of music and sounds certainly appeal to this age. The snorting my child picked up is weird, but mostly harmless. Then came the growling from the show. We're not waiting until he picks up baby George's mannerisms. He just doesn't act the same way with this show as with others.
Your child may not have the same reaction, of course. In our home, it's time to say goodbye to the pig.
