Anyone watch The Upside Down Show?
There's a show on Noggin that my son loves right now. It's called "The Upside Down Show". It's two guys who do a lot of sound effects, do a lot of pretend play, play with an imaginary remote control ("Press Pause to stop, press Shake to vibrate, etc") I've found that my son really gets into it, and it's one of the best shows I've seen to foster his imagination. They have very few real props, they pretend everything, and my son is picking up on that. Yes, Backyardigans pretend all of their games, but the kids see the full scene, with costumes, backgrounds, etc.
It's really funny when he wants us to press the buttons on our "remote". I'll press "pause", and he'll freeze, I'll press "Fast forward", and he runs around the room really fast, I'll press "slow motion", and he moves really slow, even his voice.
Plus, a side benefit for DS, is that one of the guys name is David, so he loves that...

My dd loves this show too but I can not stand it. It just annoys me so much. She thinks it is very funny though.

Re: Anyone watch The Upside Down Show?
That show is the BIGGEST hit in my house. My 5 year old AND my 21 month old LOVE it!! I think it is adorable.
You are so right, it does promote the usage of imagination. We have an old remote....my 21 month old presses the buttons when Shane and David say to...then my 5 year old acts out the command.
It is the ONLY show that really entertains the both of them.
I love the episode where the bald guy (forgot which) grows all that hair. HYSTERICAL!!

Christopher is crazy about this show. He calls it "show" and when the TV is on and it's not on, he actually asks for it.
