It's a series of documentaries aimed at toddlers and very young children, and is very effective at imparting knowledge in a very engaging way.
Now some of this might be due to my youngest one watching kit and pup (also BBC) as 1 year old as it essentially teaches kids the scientific method - but this Maddie - 'do you know' TV show has seriously upgraded my toddlers brain.
A recent example.
I'm putting my 2.5 year old to bed, she asks for a story so I start to make one up about an acorn growing on a tree...
At one point I say "And then the roots of the tree took the water from the soil"
And the tiny human interrupts me with: "No daddy, the roots don't take water..."
(Great, I think, my child is retarded and contrary)
"Yes they do darling" I reply
"No, the water goes out of the leaves then the water from the branch moves to replace it, then other water moves to replace that, Maddie said so"

Getting downvoted a bunch is to be expected anytime the OP mentions he loves a BBC.
