Top 10 classic educational cartoons for kids

27 Feb, 2013
Sesame Street

Sesame Street

Head on down to 123 Sesame Street with your kids and show them your old pals Elmo, Big Bird, Grover and Cookie Monster. If this show was one of your childhood favourites, it will definitely be a big hit with your kids and is also great way to learn numbers and the alphabet in a fun and interesting way. Brightly coloured, interactively engaging and charmingly adorable, these muppets are bound to capture the hearts of both the young and old anywhere.
Blue\'s Clues

Blue\'s Clues

Get comfy on your own big red couch with your child as you hunt for Blue\'s clues with Steve. Training your child\'s observation skills as well as logical thinking, this programme doesn\'t miss out on the learning factor with the young ones. What\'s more, there are loads of song and dance, a fun and entertaining aspect of learning that Blue\'s Clues captures so endearingly.
The Magic School Bus

The Magic School Bus

Your excursion on The Magic School Bus will be far from normal with Miss Frizzle, as many of us might remember. Those with an edge for adventure and excitement will look forward to journeying on extraordinary learning trips as you and your child are whizzed through the most spectacular field trip locations. Don\'t be surprised when the Magic School Bus takes you to outer space or inside the human body for a learning experience, and be prepared that this won\'t just be a normal field trip.
Barney and Friends

Barney and Friends

Your dinosaur sensation just got bigger than ever as you and your kids can now watch Barney episodes online. Not only does our friendly dinosaur educate the little ones on letters and numbers, he also promotes the importance of values and etiquette. Perfect for toddlers and preschoolers, your favourite purple dinosaur can now endear to your kids too. Won\'t you say you love him too?
Thomas the Tank Engine

Thomas the Tank Engine

In the island of Sodor, you would probably reminisce about the friendly tank engine who goes about his duties happily and meets his friends cheerily along the way. With many relatable life lessons and stories, Thomas' adventures will strike a chord with his young viewers as they learn important lessons with regard to friendship, respect and teamwork.
Teletubbies

Teletubbies

Who could forget this iconic kids programme starring the familiar multi-coloured characters? As your little toddlers greet \"Eh-oh!\" to the friendly and adorable characters, they will also learn more about growing up and daily life. In addition, the vibrant and vivid colours of the programme will definitely appeal to the youngest kids as they marvel at the spectacle on screen.
Bob the Builder

Bob the Builder

Almost an iconic catchphrase already, the memorable "Can we fix it?" and "Yes we can!" response rings a familiar tune to most parents and kids even today. The hardy contractor and his team of friendly vehicles will bring your child through their daily adventures as they learn the importance of teamwork, perseverance and goal setting. With his strong sense of determination and diligence, Bob's can-do attitude will definitely teach your kid some essential life lessons.
Bananas in Pyjamas

Bananas in Pyjamas

The cheerful yellow bananas B1 and B2 are set to thrill your child as they join the characters in their daily life adventures. If you still remember large costumes that the banana wore on set, you\'ll be excited to know of a different series in the animated form. Funny and interesting, this programme promises to appeal to all children and even some adults. Furthermore, kids also learn daily life lessons such as trust, honesty and respect from B1, B2 and their friends.
Dragon Tales

Dragon Tales

If you wish, you wish, with all your heart to fly with dragons in the land apart, Dragon Tales is the perfect show for you and your kid. The magic and fantasy of the show is bound to captivate young children and the exciting storylines will definitely keep them hooked. That\'s not all, as through Emmy and Max\'s encounters, viewers will also learn the values of care, persistence and patience. The close-knit bunch at Dragon Land will also reinforce the importance of community and friendship.
Bear in the big blue house

Bear in the big blue house

Feel the warmth as Bear welcomes you and your young one into his big blue house at the start of each episode. Huggable and lovable, Bear\'s encounters with his friends will remind children and parents alike of the need to be helpful and caring. Little life lessons are also woven into the show, with values like patience and hard work emphasised. Don\'t forget about the lively and musical characters in the house as they brighten up your kid\'s day and give them greater exposure to song and dance. It\'s just a bear thing.
