Childrens TV- Tweenies

Tweenies is a children's TV show, originally broadcast on the BBC's CBBC programming block. The show is set in a playschool that consists of the four Tweenies themselves: Bella, Milo, Fizz and the youngest, Jake. They are in the care of two adults, Max and Judy, and two dogs - Doodles & Izzles. The characters are well developed and the children viewing are able to guess what the characters responses might be to different situations. The use of story, song and creative activity creates excellent opportunities for children to learn through play. Music plays an important part in the show and children are encouraged to join in with songs and actions. 

The show includes a "Tweenie Clock", five circular lights arranged in a pentagon with the lights representing different types of activities "News Time" - Orange, "Messy Time" - Blue, "Song Time" - Yellow, "Telly Time" - Green and "Story Time" - Red. "Surprise Time" is a special time indicated when all five lights glow. A button at the centre of the clock (Purple) is pressed to select the activity that the characters will do next.
