Boogie Beebies

Overview:

Boogie Beebies is a UK children's television programme which is produced and broadcast by the BBC. It is aired on CBeebies. It won the Best Pre-School Live Action award at the BAFTA Children's Awards in 2005. Each programme is fifteen minutes long, and teaches children a dance, a different one each week. It was originally presented by Nataylia Roni and Pete Hillier and also features clips of children. In earlier series, the same programme was shown throughout the week. In the later series, a slightly different programme was shown each day. The only variant being, the verses are taught, and the chorus is only run through once. The dance is taught segment by segment by the instructor, in earlier programmes the two instructors took turns with each segment. The moves to each day's dance as well as the theme of the song are drawn from nature or the world around us. The programme culminates with a complete performance of the song and dance, called "Big Video Time".
