Noddy is a CGI animated, PBS series that takes place in Toyland, a magical community populated by toys that are committed to friendship, respect, caring, and cooperation. The ever-friendly Noddy is a toy doll who loves to help others, so when an argument arises over who will lead the Toyland Annual Parade in "The Toy Town Parade," Noddy helps his friends realize that it doesn't matter who goes first as long as everyone gets to participate. Noddy's sense of inclusiveness leads him to welcome the legless Wobblyman as a player on his soccer team in 'Toy Town's Winning Team," but his teammates are upset when Noddy's gesture threatens to cost their team a victory. What Noddy and his friends soon learn is that everyone has a special talent. The pressure is on when Mr. Sparks tries to fix the broken town clock in "Mr. Sparks and the Broken Clock"--can a little inspiration from the resourceful Noddy help the floundering Mr. Sparks repair the clock? Collaboration and showmanship lead to an exciting summer fair act in "The Balancing Act" and Noddy's disappointment over not knowing his family tree is eased by the realization that his friends make up one big extended family in "Noddy's Family Tree." A 2-minute "Say it with Noddy" segment follows each 10-minute episode and relates simple words or phrases in languages like Spanish, French, Mandarin, Swahili, and Russian. Bonus features include a Noddy music video and a richly illustrated, 29-page hardback book "Noddy Lends a Hand" that highlights Noddy's caring nature. (Ages 2 to 5)
