Although his name is hard for daddys to say, well for Ned’s dad anyway, Pocoyo is beautiful. Translated from Spanish as “little me” Pocoyo is a toddler who through the magic of CGI animation we can watch explore his world.

He is just so cute and so are his friends Ellie, the big pink elephant, Loula, the puppy, Pato, the duck, and Sleepy Bird.

Created to encourage childhood development, it is such a clever concept as other toddlers can relate to Pocoyo and his emotions. He can sulk and have tantrums just like a normal little one but he also displays all the wonder of discovery. Ned has Pocoyo books and has also seen him on the ABC once. The white backgrounds with the bold coloured animation are so appealing to him because he can really focus on the characters without busy-ness – I think I need to get him some episodes on DVD.

I think he is hilarious too and with Stephen Fry narrating, no wonder it’s just perfect!
