Answer 5

Our son loves Barney (pbs or you can by dvds for cheap at walmart..like 5 dollars) , It's a big big world (pbs), and mickey mouse club house. Our son is 11 months old.

Answer 6

Why not go for the classics:  Sound of Music, Pennies in the Rain, Gangs of New York...etc.  You don't have to stick to cartoons.

I also agree TV should wait.  It's probably all around better if you found something for her to do that is more interactive than television.  Maybe get her a little keyboard to make her own music.

Answer 7

barney of course!!  

Answer 8

my 7 month old ( and I !) LOVE Yo Gabba Gabba! on Noggin.  I Tivo that and show it whenever I'm trying to get things done in the kitchen and she's in her pack&play.

Also, the Sunny Side Up show on Sprout from 9 - 12 EST shows all the classics (Thomas, Sesame, Caillou, Berenstain Bears) in their entirety while being hosted by a human and a puppet chicken named "Chica"!  My daughter LOVES Chica!

These channels might only be available if you have digital cable, so checked your listings to see.

Good luck!

Answer 9

My baby is 5 months old and she is HOOKED on Baby Gourmet. There are a few but I have the first one, where they have music and introduce fruits & veggies. Real ones. And real kids. Definitely worth it!

Answer 10

While I am usually against little ones watching TV, I think the backyardagins are a neat program and the songs on it are pretty catchy :)

I like the wonderpets--it tends to have a lot of dancing and music, plus it has some good "lessons" in it as well.
