Tumble Leaf

This is an amazing show with sweet characters and a very positive viewpoint that teaches kids through innovative and creative ways.

My toddler loves this show! The mini-episodes are only 11 min long. It is far and away his favorite of the few different shows we've tried out. He literally starts laughing as soon as I start up a new episode. Unlike so many other cartoons I've come across with both him and my nieces and nephews, this one is actually (more than) bearable for the adults in the room to watch, as well. It is cute and educational for young kids. It goes over the different names, functions, and properties (shininess, reflectiveness, shape, sound, etc.) of everyday items, and it's a really cute premise. For instance, in one episode Fig (the main character) discovers that round things roll more easily on smooth surfaces, by playing with a round item on different types of surfaces. These are the sort of little details in life that parents get so used to, that we might not think to point them out to our kids. To us, they are just obvious details, but to little kids, everything is a brand new lesson, and Tumble Leaf writers do a great job of going over various items and their properties, as if they are also seeing through the children's' eyes, for the very first time. We've gone through the first season and begun to cycle back through, again, so I'm definitely looking forward to the second season!

My 6 year old has been watching since he was 2 and he loves it. My 2 year old loves it as well. Great animation and voice acting.

A work of art, Tumble Leaf is engaging and visually magical. Our three year old twins love it. And I enjoy watching it with them. Each segment develops a theme methodically, but the lessons are not heavy-handed or preachy.

My son watches this show and I secretly love it! Reminds me of something I would have watched as a child.
