Show me a toddler who doesn't just LOVE CBeebies - I'm not ashamed to say that Bert is mildly obsessed with this tv channel and have so many 'favourite' programmes that I've lost count.
When the people at Abbey Home Media sent us a copy of their latest DVD collection featuring over 2 hours of CBeebies episodes, I don't know who was more pleased...!
Bert has been watching it daily since it arrived and literally plays in the living room among his toy carnage for the full two hours...only needing my attention to tell me how much he loves (insert name of each programme/character) and that they are his favourite - he's so fickle!
Still...if it means Mummy can get her work done in relative peace...
