Saturday Supplement: Cbeebies

Television numbs the minds of children, and thank goodness for that. Children's minds could use a little numbing. And so thank goodness for Cbeebies, the television channel created by the BBC for pre-school aged children. There are no adverts, the shows often have an educational remit, and at the very least they aren't as violent, commercial, or screeching as the shows you'll find elsewhere. You can almost turn it on without feeling guilty. I've been watching every show in the 7am to 9am block for the past couple of months, and I've written capsule reviews below.
