Clackity-Clack! Ride The Rails!

Rosie: Shift your gears, Mom, let's ride the rails!

Mommy: La,la,la, hum, hum, Chuggington, chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga, Chuggington.....

Rosie: Can't catch me, I'm a Koko!

Are you hearing this at your house?

Chuggington, a Disney Playhouse television show, was recently introduced in the US. It's become one of Rosie's new favorites. We've DVR'd every episode and it's her go-to choice.

The main characters are trains - chuggers. Wilson, Koko and Brewster are young "trainees" learning skills that every train car needs to know, but more importantly - how to learn, work and play together.

Designed for children aged three to six, but I have to admit, I don't mind watching it myself *blush*. The computer-generated animation is easy to watch, the stories are cute and I find myself chuckling here and there. With positive messages, I can relax and let Rosie enjoy watching.

Chuggington? In our house, it's "TRAINTASTIC!"

What is your child's favorite tv show? What do you hope to see in children's programming?
