I wonder if the murky world of the internet, which has taken over culture in the 20 years since Teletubbies landed, plays any part in his writing. Davenport says Moon and Me had to be versatile to different formats, and accepts that lots of viewers will be watching on phones and tablets. Teletubbies was actually conceived as a way of helping children understand the new world of screens, but it seems almost quaint compared to the technology today. What does Davenport make of it?

I think it’s a double edged sword,” he says. “I remember when my godson was younger, the first thing he’d say was ‘hello’ and then ‘can I have the iPad?’ and I wouldn’t see him again. It did slightly devalue the experience of going to see him.” Kids can learn that different spaces have different sets of functions and protocols. During the Moon and Me observation project, toys were constantly “moved up and down and in between floors using stairs and doorways.” Those bridges can help a child understand that a character is leaving a space and entering a new one. They can give children a sense of control. This hard-wearing toy is effective in various play scenarios, and is also bound to be the preferred possession for the child. Using a Moon And Me Dolls House is very much Fun A major investment, the fifty-episode Moon and Me is a series of gentle stories about a family of comical toy friends living in a Toy House, and the adventures they all share with a magical visitor, Moon Baby. Pepi Nana says “tiddle toddle” because those kinds of sounds are how children learn to play with language, says Davenport, who has no children of his own but plenty of godchildren. Moon Baby, Lambkin, Mr Onion, Sleepy Dibillo, Colly Wobble, Pepi Nana, Little Nana (BBC)Bed time, meals, bathroom visits all are consistent elements of toy house play,” the team from Davenport’s Foundling Bird production company tells me. They can learn classification skills. Even now, Davenport is glad of the chance to explain how much thought goes into his hit shows. Yet despite his slightly terrifying insight into these unknowable little minds, he still gets extremely nervous before any new programme airs. Davenport, 53, who has a BSc in speech sciences, conducted his own academic research before embarking on the project. “I was interested in the literary storm of ‘toy house’ stories in the middle of the nineteenth century which are still in print today,” Davenport told i.

Colly Wobble likes to do everything the wrong way round or upside down. She loves to stand on her head and show the smiley faces on the soles of her Colly Wobble shoes. She loves to read books, especially if she can hold them upside down! We just hadn’t prepared for that kind of interest at all,” says Davenport. “People’s relatives were getting doorstepped, which is a surprising place to be in thanks to a pre-school children’s television programme. And the show took on a meaning of its own in the culture that was a little uncontrollable, which in hindsight was fine, but did mean a lot of things were said about it that weren’t true.” Moon and Me is a British-American stop motion children's television series created by Andrew Davenport. The series airs in the UK on CBeebies while it airs in the United States on Universal Kids. [1] The series was helped out by researcher Dylan Yamada-Rice by studying the ways that children interact with toy houses. [2] The series was shot at Trilith Studios, then Pinewood Atlanta Studios, in Fayetteville, Georgia. [3] This charming, gentle series offers preschoolers the chance to learn concepts while relating to the young characters, most of whom only speak a few words. The mellow tales which are offered as bedtime stories, are simple to follow, and highlight simple, activities (like dancing, flying in an airplane, and of course, the moon) that children can incorporate into their own imaginative play. GREAT VALUE - Includes 4 x Felt Colouring Pictures for Children (21 x 15 cm) and 6 x Chunky Washable Felt Tip Pens that are easy for little fingers to grip and colour-in with.Davenport already has plans for fifty more Moon and Me episodes although his shows appear about as regularly as new Kate Bush albums. “I’d love to make the next one in less than ten years time,” he admitted. “This is just the time it takes to develop a show like this. Moon and Me just felt like the right thing to do next.” All kids can benefit from playing with toy houses. Here’s how, according to the findings from the Moon and Me project and other research.

My 2 year absolutely adores this. We are only 2 episodes in but as soon as Moon & Me comes on he sits there, waving and singing. Although he really interacts with the show, it also looks like it really relaxes him. Perfect for bedtime 😊 A Hollywood entertainment company, Bento Box Entertainment, partnered with Davenport’s Foundling Bird business to bring to produce Moon and Me, which is designed to relax toddlers and prepare them for sleepy-time. Magical Toy House One read of the original pitch was all it took to convince us that Andrew had, once again, come up with an idea so beautifully simple yet rich and ambitious in scope that we couldn’t not have it,” he said.Given that every morning since our interview, my daughter has woken up and asked “Where’s Pepi Nana?” repeatedly until we put it on, I think he’s probably going to be ok. Debuted in 1997 and has now seen by an estimated billion children in 120 countries. Controversy followed the four creatures with televisions on their abdomens who played each day in Teletubbyland. For creator Andrew Davenport, the man behind Teletubbies, accuracy was the goal. In writing the show, his team collaborated with the University of Sheffield to observe how children engage with toy houses. Researchers set up cameras and microphones throughout a toy house (“It was like the Big Brother house only with toys,” Davenport told The Guardian) and looked at what goes on within the four—er, three—walls when kids play freely. What they found supports the importance of symbolic play in child development. The series eschews CGI. “We use puppetry to make the toys come alive and stop motion animation for Moon Baby. We’re trying to make a different world that doesn’t look like anything else out there. It’s a handcrafted with 500 individually-designed props and furnishings. The viewer is at eye level and sees the whole toy house.” In The Night Garden was another billion-pound hit for Davenport (BBC) While it’s a fantasy, it features simple concepts like bathing, drawing, drinking tea, etc. that small children can understand and relate to.
