my girls look forward to Bear in the Big Blue House every night at 9.30pm on Playhouse Disney Channel. it's a feel-good muppet-puppet TV show for young kids produced by the Jim Henson company.i do actually sit down with them to watch the programme. i find it's great bonding time with the kids as i explain the adventures of bear and his woodland valley friends to xian (wen's still a little too young to comprehend but she loves the songs and bear himself).
wen, who's learning how to talk and can speak a few words, would point to the TV in the evenings and ask me, "mimi, where bear?" (yeeeeeees...she calls me "mimi").
xian loves the Shadow segment and the Goodbye song which we all sing together at the end of the show. and when i brush their teeth, and when they bathe and, oh, you get the idea. :)and with the wonders of the internet, i can look up the lyrics which go like this -
Bear: Hey this was really fun
Luna: We hope you liked it too.
Bear: Seems like we've just begun
Both: When suddenly we're through.
Bear: Goodbye, Goodbye, good friends, Goodbye.
Both: For now it's time to go.
Bear: But hey! I say, "well that's OK!"
Luna: Cos we'll see you very soon, I know!
Bear: Very soon I know!
Both: Goodbye, Goodbye, good friends, Goodbye!
Luna: Goodbye!
Bear: For tomorrow, just like
Both: Today! The moon, the Bear and the Big Blue House will be waiting for you to come and play. To come and play. To come and play.
Bear: (Spoken to Luna) Goodbye now!
once the hub clucked his tongue and commented, "i wonder who's the one interested to catch the show? the mummy or the kids?"
heh, the hub reads me like a book. he's right. i don't think i'm ever going to stop watching kids' TV shows.
