Cookie Treats

While on Youtube, I happened upon this video for Tasty's recipes themed around cookie dough. I would love to try them out with Mari someday when the pandemic is over!

Gemma's Response To Swashbuckle Being Featured On Big Fat Like

"What have you done?! This isn't the way Swashbuckle should be treated, not at all. The skit was offensive to pirates everywhere, and young fans watching at home were trying to join in and play along on the CBeebies website, but instead were crying. Even Cook and Line were crying over such offensive content - and grown men don't cry! Okay, maybe they do sometimes. Ever since Captain Hey-Ho appeared last year, she seemed unfamiliar. Captain Captain was much better than that, you got that?! Also, we have a CBeebies Pirate Party coming up in a few weeks, after our favourite red monster Love Monster had his sleepover with Tiniest Fluffiest Bunny. A sleepover and a pirate party? Now that sounds like fun. Usually viewers won't be sure what to watch before the New Year, but our friend Sybil knows for sure. To anyone who's ever made this stupid sketch show - eff off!!"

Join In With Big Fat Like - Early Baby Club Songs

It's time to join in with Big Fat Like!

It's songtime this week! I like to call the songs you're about to listen to early Baby Club songs because these songs are geared more towards babies and toddlers than older children, much like Big Fat Like, which may be much better if there were interactive skits where viewers reluctantly take part.
Find more Baby Club songs on the CBeebies website:

Crackerjack Christmas Special Deleted Skit

Sasha & The Toy Shop

Inspiration can come from CBBC and CBeebies, too, and this whole 'Sasha Clause' Dumping Ground episode has given me an idea of a new I.B.F.F Diaries '15 story: Sasha & The Toy Shop.

In this story, which is sent on the 19th of December 2018, Sasha tells her DG friends and the I.B.F.Fs about a magical toy shop where you just have to wish for something inside a great big wishing well and the toy of your dreams will appear right before your eyes. This story is one she made up when she was a little girl, so the I.B.F.Fs and the kids of the DG decide to follow her tale and explore the Frankfurt Christmas Market...but get sucked down a giant hole in the ground which leads the gang to the exact toy shop Sasha describe in her story!

I'll work on it in one of my notebooks, and post it on my blog soon!

Comparing The Pride

Nothing and Hover would spend all day on their laptops writing stories and checking out new stuff on the computer, spending little time with their notebooks.
Kioga and Karabi would spend more time with their notebooks, spending time on their computers in the morning before they head off to visit a relative.

And that's what I'm doing from now on!

Scooby News

So this Scooby Doo movie, Big Top Scooby Doo....
...is airing on CiTV as well this Boxing Day?!?!

I'm happy to tell you I did enjoy the Scooby Doo movies on Boomerang, because the monsters in each film remind me of the monsters of Scream Street. The Scooby Gang have been in three worlds before last decade - CBBC, CiTV and Boomerang. So, this Boxing Day, while kids get to see Scooby and Shaggy in their circus fantasies about Scooby transforming into a goofy human version of his loyal, familiar dog form we know and love on CiTV, I'll be yelling "ALLAH!" and thinking lots about Scream Street, Peter Pan and South Park's Imaginationland during Scooby Doo & The Goblin King's commercial-free airing on CBBC. I have to say, if there were to be rivals for the Scooby Gang today, there would always be Lindsey, Richie, Adam, Mwaksy and Henry - Henry-Wenry-Woooooo!!! I saw Big Top Scooby Doo listed in the CiTV section of the Boxing Day pages of Radio Times...well, if CBBC can embrace with Cartoon Network and Boomerang, there's no reason CiTV can't.

Scooby Doo & The Goblin King is still one of my favourite Scooby movies already. ALLAH!!!
