It's a Sad, Sad Day...

[KIDZRMYBIZ]

None of my preschoolers know who Barney is! How can that be??? I suppose I'm going to have to update my curriculum for purple this week.

My kids don't know who Barney is either. I personally don't like him or Sesame Street.

[Cat Herder]

Ugh, is Barney back???? ::::

Egh.... better him than Calliou I suppose.

We are into Mat Man, here....

[Blackcat31]

I despise Barney.

[CedarCreek]

I loathe Caillou.

He's a whiner.

[KIDZRMYBIZ]

I couldn't agree more! Barney and Caillou are both ultra annoying, but oh-so-popular for a long time. The worst ever was Teletubbies, followed up closely by Booh-Bahs. They were so weird, but my boys absolutely loved the silly skits done by the family. Admittedly, so did I.

hahaha my kids LOVE Caillou ! if we watch anything during daycare hours, it's usually Caillou . so annoying and whiny but they all seem to like him.

[Lyss]

I hate Barney (and Caillou even more!), my kiddos won't even watch it. I tried once when I was trying to get lunch ready but none were interested. Barney was super huge for awhile but I'm hoping her continues to fade out!

[Meyou]

I would love a group that didn't know who Barney was! He drives me crazy!

[MyAngels]

Okay, I cannot believe I'm saying this - the old Barney was much better than the newer Barney. I'm talking early to mid-nineties Barney. Damn I'm getting old ::.

Caillou has recently been banned here. Way too much whining.

I loathe Caillou.

He's a whiner.

I heard that Caillou was a good thing for pediatric cancer patients to watch because he doesn't have any hair and they could relate. I thought that was interesting.

I can handle a bit of Barney, but not Caillou. You know the other one who gets under my skin, is Elmo! Why does he always refer to himself in the present tense? "Elmo tired, time for Elmo to put Elmo's pajamas on and go to bed" What? Why?

[sharlan]

Caillou is permanently banned in my house. I cannot handle the constant whining. We haven't watched it in about 5 years, and it was better then than the old Caillou who couldn't say one word that wasn't a whine.

I liked Barney, but we haven't watched him either in about 15 years or so.

I have to say though, that Caillou is better than the CRAP that my dh loves and I forbid to be on during daycare hours. The worst is Annoying Orange (or something like that). There's another one he loves that has a ghost, a raccoon, a green monster (?). I hate that one, too! I swear that they kill brain cells by the second.

I like Cailou yes he has a high pitched voice but to me it is not whining. That is when you do it to get something, His voice is just high. We only watch 1 show and they usually want Sid the science guy or Daniel the tiger...

Those songs on Daniel the Tiger get a bit annoying but they work.

Barney used to be a hit here but this group is not a singing group. But put on sid and they are glued and then go try it themselves
