Another guilty pleasure

I really dislike most children’s programming of the educational variety–it has a didactic tone that grates on me.  Every story may have a moral, but do we have to beat kids over the head with it? 

And that’s why I love the Teletubbies.  I don’t feel like they are trying to teach me anything.  Instead, they invite me to join in the fun for a little while, watching them play and care about each other.  The happy opening music and the laughing baby sun never fail to make me smile.
