Helps my child with concepts
kennethlee-3763220 September 2020
This show is simple fun and outstanding. It has really aided in my daughter in understanding concepts from full and empty, slow and fast, loud and quiet and everything in-between.

Wonderful show! Thank you, one of the best children's show out there. Particularly in contrast with all of the garbage that is out there

My 2 year old loves this

My 2 year old just laughs and laughs when she watches this and she watches it so intently. It's a nice break from listening to nursery rhymes all day and it's actually entertaining.

Educational and creative. The message is simple and engaging for younger children.

More of the same from Anne Wood
andrewpage-298507 April 2015
Anne Wood, the brain behind Tellytubbies and In The Night Garden, uses her tried and tested formula to create Twirlywoos.

It's so obviously an Anne Wood creation. The similarities are so obvious they shouldn't need stating, but here they are:

  • cute, colourful characters that are clearly related to each other in an unspecified way; - aside from the narrator, language has been reduced to squeaky noises and funny sounds; - fabulously detailed set; - no real storyline, just a routine through which the characters get a chance to see into the human world; - use of space/stops to give children opportunities to respond/interpret.


The problem with Twirlywoos isn't that it's bad - it's that it seems to be little more than a repackaging of Wood's previous creations. Instead of Tinky-Winky, Dispy, Laa-Laa and Po (or Upsy-Daisy, Iggle-Piggle, Makka Pakka and the Tombliboos) we have Great Big Hoo, Toodle-oo, Chickadee, Chick and Peekaboo. It's good to look at, but for all the talk it's hardly original.

My toddler loves this show.
hallamerriman5 August 2020
It's an adorable TV show about a family of birds. My son loves watching it. It's perfect for small children, it's very easy to understand with minimal things to keep toddlers engaged. Fun noises, colors, and learning basics are used. It can get kind of repetitive if you aren't under the age of 4 but it's geared towards younger children so that makes sense. Overall Twirlywoos is a great show for younger kids.

Terrible! I don't believe they have any idea about children
allatiteh20128 July 2020
My little one frustrated of those trompets characters and also that important lady which falling apart and her head running around! Even me as a adult feel uncomfortable to watching it! Do you have any idea what children should watch?! Not sure why they still are producing a failed show!
