Bedtime TV show heads Stateside
10/10/2011
A TV show that has helped many parents to encourage their kids to get into their children's beds is now heading over to the US.
Pajanimals is a Belfast-based production that uses a range of techniques to encourage youngsters to wind down before they get into bed.
It is created by the Jim Henson Creature Shop and contains four colourful puppet characters who sing songs and tell stories that are sure to be a hit with children.
Colin Williams, creative director at production company Sixteen South, told the Belfast Telegraph: "Sprout is a big channel, so we are very pleased. The exposure to the show will only increase now."
The show is aimed at youngsters between the ages of two and five and hopes to make them more comfortable with their bedtime routine.
Dr John Sharry, director of the Parents Plus charity, recently explained to the Irish Times that parents must encourage children to sleep in their own beds, otherwise everyone's rest patterns could suffer.
