TV Show: ポコポッテイト(Poco Potteito)

ポコポッテイト(Poco Potteito) is one of Elodie's favorite Japanese TV shows. I've tried to get her to switch over to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Sesame Street, and even the Wiggles, but she still prefers the Japanese shows.

Large stuffed animals of the characters of Poco Potteito were displayed at the Sapporo Snow Festival. Elodie was SO excited!


Below is a quick 30-second youtube video of the beginning song on the show, so you can get a quick glimpse of what it's about. I'm pretty sure it's about these characters living on a small potato island... but who really knows since I don't understand a word of it!


The children's shows here are cute, and I'm glad E enjoys them, but it bothers me that I'm letting her watch something that I can't understand. It also worries me for when we move back to the U.S. because they won't be available anymore, so I don't want her to get too attached. A couple friends and family have suggested other U.S. shows that E might like, so we'll give those a try and hope she's interested. We're going back to MI at the end of February for a month, so I guess that will be a good way to test out new shows.
